That is the only thing that can really be relied upon. I'm all for learning more about file systems. Your experiences with ext3 are not mine, but I did have a problem with ext3 that echoes your concerns. fsck would not run against an ext3 file system no matter what I did. It kept reporting "journal says it's ok, so it's ok". I had forgotten about "shutdown -fsck_it_when_it_comes_back_up" and the "tune2fs" option to both set a check interval and then tell it it's exceeded that interval already. Oh well, 20/20 hindsight. There certainly is still room for improvement in file systems. Does anyone have personal experience with "jfs"? It seems to compare well in the tests.
