I've always used just ext2/3 and now that I've recently gotten a gentoo system going i started reading up a bit on reiserFS...

ok so ive read lots of the atomic hooplah about reiser4... so im wondering now

when is it supposed to be ready?

also, how does reiser3 handle system crashes? i just had a ext3 system crash on me which trashed all the data on an entire hard disk... so much for journaling. The system crash was due to a redundant power chasis failure (even with redundant power, there is still a single point of failure!)

so im trying to think of what FS to use in this next round of servers... according to namesys, reiser4 will not be as stable as v3 for a while.

thanks

Any dates posted on the ReiserFS site? I would think that would be the best place to check as they don't tell us anything on their release dates and the JL members that might know may not even see your question. :)
