That's interesting. Where did you hear about the corruption under 2.4.3? > I have never had a problem with it myself though... I haven't had any problems with it either, but I haven't touched the kernel since I started using it (I'm using kernel 2.4.1) because of the stories of corruption with kernel 2.4.2. > I have also been warned not to use Reiserfs on the root partition, as > sometimes the computer might not be able to boot.

My root partition *is* reiserfs, but I use a small ext2 partition mounted on /boot which contains the kernel, so I don't expect to have any problems booting. Matthew
