1 Just a note, certain 2.4 kernels had reiserfs problems but reiserfs is
2 certainly production ready, much moreso than ext3 which is still
3 exhibiting issues as per threads on lkml. Personally I've been using
4 reiserfs exclusively (minus 30M /boot partitions) on all
5 workstation/servers for the last two years. The only machine I had
6 problems with was a laptop which was notorious for dying due to bad
7 battery connections.

9 On the other hand, I've run into ext2 problems several times per year on
10 several machines. Twice hosing my entire filesystem.

12 On a related note, please update your /etc/fstab installation to read
13 "reiserfs", not "resierfs".
