7 You're thinking of rieserfs4 not ext4. ext4 is going to a bit of a dev
8 playground as changes come pouring in and new implementation bugs get
9 worked out. I'd stay with ext3 unless you actually need extents, you
10 don't, or the idea of an unmountable or corrupted filesystem at some
11 indeterminate point in the future appeals to you. :-)
