Unlucky or no, there's nothing wrong with the hardware... it's a three month old Athlon 2500+ I built which is stable under Gentoo and ext3, RedHat, Debian, and (gasp) even WinXP when the need arises. But ReiserFS puked and died a quick and painful death on it. With that as the "taste in my mouth" from my first experience with Reiser, I'll just stick to ext3 since it's treated me so well on (after doing a quick count here...) almost 200 machines I've either been personally responsible for, or were indirectly and admin of. It may not be the fastest or the flashiest, but it just WORKS, and after a long day at work dealing with Linux boxes, the last thing I want to do is mess around with repairing a ReiserFS filesystem. Not worth messing with, IMHO. -- Nate Duehr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
