I'm not aware of any stack-specific issues with Reiser, only XFS (though it appears JFS has issues too). > If so, how do I know if I have 4k stacks? If its a Red Hat or Fedora Core 2.6 kernel, installed from one of Red Hat's kernel rpms, its 4kstacks. Otherwise, you likely would have had to enable 4kstacks in a kernel of your own building (though I seem to recall Gentoo possibly defaulting to 4kstacks if you're using genkernel). > How do I fix that, or do I > just swap the FS to ext3? Sorry for being dense..... Sounds like Reiser just plain sucks for large files like those associated with HDTV, but it isn't a kernel stack size issue. I'd switch to a different file system myself. -- Jarod Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
