Hans Reiser, the prominent Bay Area Linux programmer charged with murdering his wife, says he's seeking to sell off his open-source file system company, Namesys, to help pay mounting legal costs. In the first interview since his arrest, Reiser spoke this week about the future of his company and his legal travails from within the walls of Santa Rita Jail, where he is being held without bail.

yep.
I had it in a machine with 3 hard drives.
drive one
/dev/hda1 /boot 100mb ext2
/dev/hda5 / 20gb reiserfs
/dev/hda4 swap 1gb swap
/dev/hda3 /win 96gb vfat
drive two
/dev/hdb1 /home 160gb xfs
drive three
/dev/hdd1 /storage 80gb ext3
/dev/hdd3 /var 20gb reiserfs
there was a power failure, and when I restarted, the machine was throwing up errors on the / and /var filesystems. I used a live-cd to have a look around and could not access the / partition at all. /var was full of weird characters, but all the other filesystems held up and lost no data.
I usually use XFS if I want speed, but at the minute, using Ubuntu, I a, using ext3 on /
with data=ordered as the option.
not the fastest, but very secure.
