My system is at this very moment rebuilding itself after ReiserFS died and trashed my entire filesystem. Of course, there was a power loss in the middle of mounting /, so I'm sure that had something to do with it. reiserfsk dumped my entire home folder somewhere in lost+found and I haven't had time to dig through and see what I can salvage yet. Anyway, it's not just an urban legend anymore, but you could call it user error. I still used ReiserFS as my / on the new system.
