This is another anomaly that came in with 11.1.

So I'm considering what alternatives I have. Yes, I know, using ReiserFS is one.

Reiserfs and 11.1 is potentially a no-no for now. A strange combination of that and beagle can currently crash the machine. Better wait till they solve that problem. Or rather, try. You might be lucky and not bump into it, or /I/ be lucky and you do bump into it - as you can add a "me too" to my report ;-P - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

Has anyone ever added an external journal to a mature FS? Reiser or ext3?

I'm wondering of adding a new logical volume on my LVM for each of my journalled file systems would be of use? How large should something like that be?

Does anyone have experience with adding a journal 'after the fact'? Or with the journal being on a LVM

Adding a joural to make ext2 into ext3 is quite easy. I've never tried converting ext2 to Reiser.

James, I think he was talking about internal vs. external journaling. I assume all of the journaling file systems support both.
