"Coming home"? Redhat 4.2? Ext3fs/ReiserFS/others are less prone to fs corruption but just because a filesystem isn't corrupt doesn't mean your data won't be corrupt. If the system is important, put in a UPS and configure automatic shutdown when commercial power fails. That should be your first step if its an important system, not worrying about switching filesystems.
