I have assigned about 239GB to my /home partition which is ext3 filesystem. I have heard that ext3 has issues with partitions more than 25GB. I fear that my installation will corrupt again.
Can I do anything to stop the oncoming crash ? Do you suggest switching to a better FS? Perhaps like JFS or ext4? In that case, how do I convert my FS without losing any data?
