ReiserFS has many situations where file system corruption can make operations such as "find /" trigger a kernel Oops. Having a file system decide to panic the kernel because your mount options instructed it to (ext3) is one thing. Having the file system driver corrupt random kernel memory and cause an Oops (Reiser) is another. The ReiserFS team's response to such issues has not made me happy so I am removing it from all my machines and converting to Ext3. Also you can't have a ReiserFS file system mounted read-only while fsck'ing it. Which makes recovering errors on the root FS very interesting to say the least. -- http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ My NSA Security Enhanced Linux packages http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
