Right, as you know, it's unusual to lose data on a linux box, ever.
In contrast, reiserfs has not fared so well -- On more than one occasion, a crash or power outage resulted in lost files... and this was on my home machine which had far fewer problems... one power disruption and a few system hangs (running out of swap).
Don't know what to tell you Sam, but I've had 70 suse servers running reiser for years and have never lost a byte. Perhaps you had some bad hardware? Joe -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
