Thanks for the info. Now, I feel more comfortable about converting this partition while using it. I have just one more question: The two versions of the ReiserFS have very different limitations, for one, on how many files there can be in a directory (indicating that they use different number types). So, how can both versions be present and operating simultaneously? -- Sebastian J. Bronner [EMAIL PROTECTED]
