I've been reading up on ReiserFS and it seems more than a few people have had problems with it. I choose it 2 years ago because of its good performance when handling lots of small files. Right now I am thinking of going the really conservative way and return to ext3 again. Performance might be worse, but in my experience and from what I read in the Internet it is rocksolid. I suppose that means fiddling around with parted to make space for a new /home partition. Ah well... Grx HdV -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
