I wouldn't switch from Reiserfs, especially not to ext3; Reiserfs has some big advantages namely, it's ability to deal with many small files (mp3s, caches, etc.) and it's recovery stuff. I use Reiserfs both on my Freevo box, and on a production webserver, which has experienced a few power outages, but has never failed to come back up.
Ext3 is a stopgap in my mind; adding journaling to an existing filesystem makes conversions easier, but if you can start with a proper system, I'd go with Reiser. I don't know about the more "industrial strength" systems like XFS and JFS. Aubin On Tue, Jun 10, 2003 at 10:25:57PM -0700, Mike Payson wrote: > What is the recommended partition type for Freevo?
