I did a little test. Something fishy here. I did a test with the

command just in reverse. This is what I got now:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] / # /root/fragck.pl /data/
3.88457269700333% non contiguous files, 1.04344379261138 average
fragments. [EMAIL PROTECTED] / #
That is not a lot better than it was before. It was 4.6% before.
How is that? I copied it over then ran the command right after
without even touching the files.
Before you copy back, you have to "clean" the old partition - either
by deleting everything or by partioning it.

I just did a mkreiserfs /dev/hdb1. That should work right?
