now we talk about filesystems, i have lost my respect to many filesystems, if the power fails while doing stuff on reiserfs and ext3 i loose files, that _NEVER_ happend to me with fat32, and it doesent even have a journal, and yet, i have fat32 for my stuff, and ext3 for my system, and if power goes, i might loose files on my ext3, but NEVER on my fat32
