Isn't JFS available in 10.3 - just with a big warning that it's
untested?


The new kernel for Opensuse 11 has support for ReiserFS4?

What is about the support of ReiserFS4 as default file system in Opensuse 11?

I have now in my system (workstation) ext3, and from time to time when
it executes the automatic fsck (60 days), it takes about 40 minutes
for a hard disk of 250 GB, and in many of this cases, I hate only 30
minutes to see the emails and go out.
With ReiserFS3, I not hate those problems to wait for use the
workstation 30 or 40 minutes, as with ext3 happens.
