I think you didn't got my point. I'm not saying that other distros can't use ext3. I just got mad with having to chase RPM dependencies and started hating RPM distros.
The fact that they (Mandrake, RedHat, Fedora, Conectiva, etc) use ext3 as default made me hate ext3 too. I know now that it was a bad reason for changing to another filesystem, but I'm satisfied with ReiserFS and, unless it lets me down really bad in the near future, I don't intend to change fs again. ;) As I said before, I have no real complaints about ext3. :) 2005/4/18, A.
