>Well, I was once very 'luckily' and after a system crash (*) e2fsck put all files into lost+found. Sure, I never experienced this again, but I also never experienced something like this with reiserfs. So please, stop this kind of FUD against reiser3.6. While filesystem speed is nice, it also would be great if reiser4.x would be very robust against any kind of hardware failures. (*) The problem was a specific mainboard + video-card + driver combination. As soon as X started up, the system entirely crashed. I don't believe many bytes were written, but I also can't prove it. -- Bernd Schubert PCI / Theoretische Chemie Universität Heidelberg INF 229 69120 Heidelberg
