Are the > reiserfsck-tools stable now? Well I had a bad experience with reiserfsfsck. While compiling a new kernel (2.4.21-pre2-jp15) the computer freezed. I had to restart it and the root partition was corrupted and unbootable . I got the hard drive at a friends computer run fsck got my data back but I had to reformat it. It wasnt booting still.
