Ooops, i figured out what went wrong, but if I have to
enable the experimental drivers, of which Reiser is
not, then why is ext3 a choice when it is labeled
experimental and I did not enable the experimental drivers?

ReiserFS is not labelled experimental in the SuSE kernel nowadays......
and I think SuSE is correct. We still have bugs, you can read about
them on our mailing list, but hitting them is much less likely than a
drive failure for ReiserFS users on the whole. 2.4.17 looks like our
most stable version yet. Marcello does a really nice job of quickly
integrating patches.

Merry Christmas !

Is the NFS conjunction for reiserfs for Servers now usable stable ?
Means, no panic patches nessesary not patch-of-the-day anymore, just
linux-like-rocks-steady-working ?

(In the past ther were to much headaches and patches ...)
Just asking before upgrading any server.

Have nice X-Mas...

I am using NFS to share /usr and /home with reiserFS on three dual Athlon
1500XP, and they have 1 month of uptime and no problems till now.
I am using kernel 2.4.13+mosix. I am also using a 2.4.17 NFS server with
reiserFS on a k6-II 475Mhz, for slackware installation with NFS, and no
problem also there. It happens that I have also very high IO on NFS, so I
think I can say it works.

personal network..

It would mean that not all the experimental checks are right. Take a look
at fs/Config.in and you can probably see how to fix it and then send
Marcelo a patch

Sounds Well, Merry-X Mas.
I'll try it on the Test-Server-Range.

Hey all,
Just thought now might be a good time to mention that I have a few
servers running ReiserFS. They have NFS'd drives shared across, and
have been up for sometime (they're running Mandrake 7.2). Now I know
it's Mandrake, and I have no idea what they do to the RieserFS code in
the kernel, so that might be an important note. Just thought I'd
mention that I have had these servers running for 6+ months :) Also, as
far as hardware, both servers are dual 866 MHz pentiums, with 512 megs
DDR, one with a 15 gig hard drive and the other with a 60 gig drive.
Hope this information helps :)
