Sorry not to mention about your topic but it comes to
my attention that you are using jfs, just from my own
experience with jfs, you should stay away with this
for now if you want to protect your dada. I test it
one time, and when the computer hang ( as I test the
latest kernel ) I have to power off, but when it gets
back it can not repair the root partition. First check
fsck long time, then inform me that the partition is
totally damaged. SO what is the point of Journalling
here? believe me, jfs is not stable at all. It is
ironically that I had just post an email about its
performance (it seems a bit better that Reiserfs in my
comp.) ....

If you want you can test XFS, I am using it now, and
try to crash it several times, Good!; performance is a
bit better than reiserfs (=jfs) but very fast
recovering and quite stable.
