I vote for ext3. The ext3 filesystem is the easiest to fix if something goes wrong. The other filesystems may need some tweaking when something goes wrong. When the root filesystem goes bad it can be very hard to fix problems because you may not be able to boot up cleanly and use the commands needed to work on the problem.

This works really great (I couldn't beleave that everything compiled without problems) and currently I'm looking for a filesysteme for my root partition. At the moment it's reiserfs, but as far as I know the quota support for reiser is broken / unstable. So is there a recommendation which filesystem (xfs, jfs, reiserfs, ext3) to use for the root partition especially if you want to use quota support (I would like to know if my partition is running out of space, so if someone has better ideas than quota, let me know)?
