[gentoo-user] resiserfs

[rh]

Just wondering if anyone else has had bad experience with reiserfs.   I started using Gentoo a few months ago, played with it until I knew what I was doing (sort of) and what I wanted to install and how I wanted it configured.   Then I wiped the system clean and the only thing I changed was changing my filesystem from ext3 to reiserfs. It got rather ugly after that. The system would freeze randomly, would freeze during emerges and during compiles. Tried re-installing and the damn thing froze during this on at least five occasions.   So, wiped the system clean again, re-installed with ext3 as my filesystem and so far all appears well although I am still in the middle of finalizing my installation.   Just curious as I really didn't think that changing the filesystem would have such terrible effects on my system. Wouldn't mind some theories as to what went wrong.   r.
