I've been using reiserfs for quite a while now. (more than a year) I've had some apm bios troubles that used to freeze my laptop frequently. Reiserfs log replays at boot never take more than a second, and I have yet to see anything go wrong. Reiserfs is said to "greatly outperform ext3 on small files". All I can say is I'm not unhappy about the performance. And don't let people tell you it's unstable. (I think is considered stable since kernel release 2.4.18, so you need at least that kernel) --- nessie -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
