Dunno about ReiserFS on seawolf as I haven't tried it yet, but I have
my box running seawolf on XFS (IDE, all partitions except /boot)
without any problems. Have you considered it as a journaling
filesystem? I'm very impressed by it, I used to like ReiserFS and then
I tried XFS and performance seems much better so I'm not going back.
BTW it is developed by SGI so it has to be good :) At least I do
trust them more than the guys in Brazil who packaged ReiserFS...
They have made a version of anaconda which installs the standard Red
Hat 7.1 + the XFS patched kernel and filesystem utilites, and also
allows you to format your partitions as XFS before installing. Oh, and
you get devfs, too. Check out:
http://linux-xfs.sgi.com/projects/xfs/
I recall journaling filesystems were discussed extensively on the
wolverine (7.1 beta) list. Check the archives.
