You mean, similar to many peoples experience with early adoption of 11.1 - Iost not one, but two hard drives due to low level corruption.
How would an OS or its installer do this?
I don't know if this was Curtis' problem, but I had to redo several full-installs due to a Reiserfs bug in 11.1. I'm not sure if the issue was ever fixed, I switched to XFS. I didn't loose any data except for the just-installed partitions.

Yep ReiserFS would thrash my drive... horribly! And there seemed to be a some sort of bug in the kernel (suse modified) or perhaps something else that was ancillary to it - After a few updates (noted when I returned to openSuSE) that this wasn't and issue - Frankly, my take was 11.1 was pushed out the door before it was ready.
