Well my "strange thing" invloved the client (the machine mounting NFS from a NFS/Reiserfs) having 5min lockups... get the nfs patches and It goes away (so i'm told). > > > > > > What i know is that ext3 and NFS _are_ compatible.

Re: [Cooker] reiserfs? anyone?
As long as you have NFS patches installed on your kernel your OK. If not NFS will be a total dog / broken with reiserfs. goto http://nfs.sourceforge.net/ to get the nfs patches...

I've not lost a partition yet and some of the machines I've installed with it get very clumsily treated. Two caveats, Reiser will not format tiny (<16MB) partitions such as are often used for /boot (in which case use ext2 and mount it readonly) and you lose quota support and a few other things on the Reiser partitions. -- Error: Keyboard not attached.

Re: [Cooker] reiserfs? anyone?
Anyone on the list using reiser with NFS? It's really sketchy from the wreiser website if it's safe to use it with NFS or not. What i know is that ext3 and NFS _are_ compatible. Can't Mandrake include a kernel with ext3 also included? On Fri, 20 Oct 2000, Alexander Skwar wrote: > So sprach Brian J.

Re: [Cooker] reiserfs? anyone?
Yes it works. I use it. I'd recomend against it though. It's not fast, is still not production quality, and unless your system is crashing all the time its unneeded On Fri, 20 Oct 2000, Brian J.

I just wish I could say the same for Mandrake (release, not beta), which missed out the small detail of installing a kernel... James.
