You're kidding, right? You want me to take a highly stable (except for NFS)
filesystem like ReiserFS and chunk it for Linux XFS? No enterprise is going
to be happier with XFS vs. Reiser for now.
As an enterprise user, I can tell you that I'm waiting for VeritasFS. I'd
like a journaling (ReiserFS is waaay further along than XFS) filesystem for
my / and /usr filesystems. However, for my real data, give me Veritas or a
raw partition for Oracle.
