I decided to format my system drive to use ext3. I believe I can mount it as ext4 when it gets marked stable, and it **should** be able to take that and make the new features kick in. If not, since I won't be running gentoo, it won't be hard to format the system partition again. ext4 looks nice. :)

A very long time ago, when reiserfs was still under heavy development, I opted to move to it rather than to move to ext3 (I was still on ext2). It seemed like it was a good filesystem, and it never gave me troubles. Lately, I am thinking moving off reiserfs, as it seems development has basically stopped. There have also been a decent number of bugs to crawl out of the reiserfs woodwork.
I am thinking about XFS, but I haven't read anything about it yet.
