Yes, but the question is which to use. Hopefully the install provides a
description or default selection of when you should choose a certain
journaling FS, with "Choose ext3 if you don't understand what any of this
means".
For me, it's usually just for workstation use, but I'm glad to see
journaling as I have had ext2 crash so many times and have lost so much
data that I'm glad if we can finally put an end to all of that.
