Sometime on Nov 4, Ritesh H Shukla assembled some asciibets to say: No, no, I really want you to tell me whether I should change from ext2 to ext3. Basically, I'm asking for a review of ext3 from someone who's tried it, namely, you. I'll decide after that if I should shift or not.
I run ext3. It's really cool. No performance hits. And the FS works fine as ext2 too. So, in case you have to try a new kernel (rescue, boot etc.), it works perfectly! (Just that fstab should have the FS type as auto.)
Now I don't care about power cuts! ;-) And no data loss to convert FS to ext3 .. and no more than 10 seconds to convert!
