RE: Can't type fast!!

[Scott Stone <SStone@example.com>]

after all the reports I've heard of corruption with ReiserFS, I wouldn't
trust it.  It seems to be exacerbated by having multiple users trying to use
the ReiserFS filesystem at the same time.. on a home box that's pretty much
just YOU using it, you're probably ok.

XFS... has some promise, but SGI cannot release the full spec of XFS due to
licensing issues with Veritas.

JFS... I know very little about.  Is this in the 2.4 kernel or does it
require a patch?

You know, there are several filesystems like ReiserFS, SGI's xfs
and IBM's JFS. I have used ReiserFS for three weeks and it is
lock solid, though it is still experimental. There is no fsck hell.
