Sure, you can choose whatever you like during the diskdrake part of the
install when you are setting up the partitions.  I would second
Stephen's vote for Reiser BTW.

I usually create a small (64MB is heaps) /boot partition, making it
ext3, then choose Reiser for everything else (except swap of course).

Enjoy!

Easily confused, yes, but it's _Anne_ that's the drunkard.
