Hi, Seing that reiser4 was pretty much stable on my i386 workstation, I decided to give it a try on my iBook 2001 dual-usb.
While compiling the new kernel for my laptop (2.6.15 + debian, reiser4 patched, built-in), it gave new_page as an unresolved symbol in fs/reiser4/plugin/item/tail.c . By looking at the context of the file, I changed new_page for page. With that, I was able to start rsyncing my system back on the laptop (using a rescue partition, with the same kernel). Unfortunately, about halfway through, it gave a pretty ugly panic; the dmesg output is attached. Running 'sync' or 'umount' on the filesystem resulted in that userspace program to stop responding completely. After a reboot, a fsck on the reiser4 filesystem resulted in total anhilation (thousands of files in lost+found, none in the rest of the filesystem). Hopefully, I have good backup habits (my workstation is backed up twice a week in case of reiser4 snafu), no data was lost, so I wont be suing namesys ;P. Thanks for the great filesystem, Keep up the great work, Jonathan
