[lug] get yer red hot Roswell 2nd Edition!

[Ferdinand Schmid]

KRUD 7.1 also offers a reiserfs install option (check out Kevin'g readme).  We 
use KRUD and SuSE about 50/50 here and I can only say good things about 
reiserfs.  Our main file server uses 70% reiserfs and the rest ext2.  A few 
weeks ago I had a file corruption problem on an ext2 partition and the fsck took 
about 40 min (that's what you get for storing 1/2 TB on your disks).

No Reiserfs problems yet in about 8 months of using it on production systems 
doing postgres and Samba.

A nice side benefit of Reiserfs:  If your disk fills up to 100% and then someone 
tries to open files for writing those files don't get corrupted.
