   I'm told that [RedHat] 7.2 will install using ext3 journaling
   filesystem support by default. Would this be something worth
   waiting for?

Call me a cynic, but I'd say it's something to avoid.  RedHat has
a tendency to release beta-quality code (including kernel modifications),
then issue patches later.  (I don't know about ext3 specifically, but
I don't see it in the 2.4.3 sources.  Or in a quick glance through
the changelogs up to 2.4.9.  Is it really ready for prime time?)
