Well... 11.0 corupts external HD formated as reiserfs, via USB. 11.1 crashed till the last kernel updated if you had a reiserfs and beagle was running.
I've heard reiserfs can kill more than just the file system...
The problem was BEAGLE, not resier.
Not true. Beagle simply used a feature that was broken in reiser, perhaps because nobody before had used it. And guess what? Finally they found what was wrong in the kernel and corrected it. Nothing was broken on beagle. It is a confirmed reiserfs implementation bug.
reiser has been one of the most stable and fastest file systems for a long time.
That was true previously, but not currently. I "love" that filesystem, but the current implementation is starting to break and fail on several places. For instance, I have external media (USB) formatted as reiserfs, and it gets corrupted every time I write to it from 11.0. So badly corrupted that it takes several hours to fsck and repair. It was fine under 10.3, and seems to work under 11.1. I have more bugs reported against reiserfs :-( - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
