I am about to install openSuSE 10.2 on two new computers and see that the 10.2 default file system is ext3 and not Reiser. I'd like some advice as whether to accept the ext3 default or to go with Reiser as I have in the past.
The reiserfs will likely not get improvements, that's all. If it has worked for you in the past, you can just keep using it as safely as before. I use it.
In my experience, reiserfs is not safe. It frequently fails (corruption and/or file loss) in the event of improper shutdown such as power failure or system crash. Conversely, in Iraq, where I experienced frequent power-related shutdowns, and a couple crashes (due to I think, running out of swap space), I never lost a single file using ext3 and xfs. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
