Not a problem > in 2.4. collisions that make problems if only one system (reiser/ext3) gets used? or is the mere existance of the kernelmodule enough (or does it not compile). sorry for such a load of questions. i have some customers, that cannot switch to 2.4 yet, because they use some custom network-modules, which are not available/compatible with 2.4. they would like to use some journaling system, but they ant to decide for themselfes [that means, that some of them would use ext3 and other reiserfs] :( --=-Uutskt+iChk7AuskfdbD Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQA8XrqjyOLl//lX6PMRAlXlAKDOrQSXH8SV5d7KxwudvKDtpy6bcgCcDfAZ xMWK67g0WYchJIv9ADyNljY= =iMpV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-Uutskt+iChk7AuskfdbD--
