A took which can check the consistancy of the journal may be needed though(fsck for ext3 may do this transparently). reiser has a tool that does this as well but it doesn't do an actual filesystem check(in the traditional sense like on ext2, or ufs or whatever) from what I can tell in the help for resiercheck at least. This tool would also be responsible for replaying journal entries to restore filesystem integrtity(of course this by no means insures the data is intact, only that the filesystem is intact). nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
