rejected reiserfs (no dump/restore - personal taste).

too much hassle with xfs (not in tree yet, and a colossal
PITA patch).

decided to give ext3 a shot.  has the virtue of having a
fairly simple kernel patch, and it's backward compatible
with ext2 (in fact you can convert an existing filesystem
without any save/restore).

a couple of patch conflicts, since the ext3 patch tried to
patch sched.h, and so did netraverse's patch.  this turned
out to be trivial to fix.  converted my 5 filesystems, and
i'm posting this now from a ext3 system (best thing is there
is no fear of problems with win4lin C: drive, since ext3 is
absolutely identical at the filesystem level.
