Hi Maurizio,

Mandrake 8.1 already supports ext3. The advantage of choosing it is that it 
is a journalled file system, so no more fsck every nth boot, and less chance 
of corrupted files if you manage to crash it / fall over the power lead / let 
your laptop battery run down.
There are other journalled file systems, but ext3 seems to be the one to go 
for if you don't have a preference.
