Greetings,
Has anyone experienced a sudden crash when using reiserfs on one partition and ext2 on another?
Never. I always have /boot in ext2 partition, everything else reiserfs

Just weird, I was working in my music folder, and bang the system freezes. With no option but to reboot I do so. All of sudden reiserfsck comes up and says my file system is corrupt. Another message swears that it can't identify my secondpartition. After hours of rescue disk effort, I have had to start my box from scratch... Both my reisefs and ext2 partitions are stuffed. One question though, during setup the primary partition is reiserfs, the yast partitioner makes the second partition ext2, I never noticed this until this morning. Hence why the one partition was ext2 not also reiserfs. I went through the setup twice to be sure. Is there a logical reason? Or is my copy buggy? What bothers me is A) why not the same B) if there is reason to make the second different, if so why not ext3 which is far safer than ext2.. (He scratches his head in a cloud of wonder ) :) Thanks for the reply. Chad

My crystal ball asks me what is that second partition. Perhaps /boot? - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFD+YR+tTMYHG2NR9URAviPAJ9Oz5U4Cws5zCAy+zLCmyyusy7NtgCfYoZI KeuRskje04MqDAus6h3FkME= =2v9T -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Have you checked your drive before repartitioning? Better be sure it does not have bad sectors. Manufacturers have tools (bootable diskettes) to check the drive.

You will have to specify at least what SuSE version you are using. But yes, me and others have expereienced crashes related to reiserfs. You will have to be more carefull how you write your emails: X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new at Relay1.suse.de X-Spam-Status: Yes, hits=9.9 tagged_above=-20.0 required=5.0 tests=BAYES_50, HTML_90_100, HTML_MESSAGE, INVALID_MSGID, MISSING_SUBJECT, MSGID_NO_HOST, MSGID_SHORT, RCVD_IN_WHOIS_BOGONS You are using "that" software, you use html, no subject, bad msgid (B0008588026@)... no wonder you get a 9.9 score. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFD+YQStTMYHG2NR9URAib5AJ0cK89QfQSMrbaebQAmiAfX5X+n5gCgi1nR aenx7+iIgFZBrtBBr4oS2dU= =ri17 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

I've never been successfully able to use resierfs for more than a few weeks, but I've never figured out why. I've searched for messages about this for a long time - A few other prople have had problems, and many have not. Never found a reason or pattern.

I had a problem running *adjacent* ext3 and reiserfs partitions on the same physical disk. When I distributed the filesystems to partitions on different hard drives, my file corruption problems went away. Eventually, I determined that it was a limitation in the driver for the IDE controller chip used on the mainboard. IOW, these problems/stories are sometimes tied to specific hardware but the filesystems are 'blamed.' Carl
