After hearing Ted T'so talk about how Reiser's fsck works, basically searching for things that look like blocks and joining them up, I felt a bit uncomfortable - what if you have an image of a riserfs on a reiserfs partition? I've herad some other unplesant things too, though I can't remember any of them off hand. So I don't recommend that people use Reiser FS, though I do know a lot of work has gone into it, and a lot of people find it quite useful, and thats fine too. -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
