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.
In defence of Reiser - what version was that? I had many problems with just the above in 9.3. Once I upgraded to 10.0, the problems went away. Of course, when I build my 10.2 laptop, I am using EXT3. I'm still using Reiser on my upgraded desktops - one of which has been running since 9.1 on Reiser. -- kai ponte www.perfectreign.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
