On my laptop, where in the future the real audio stuff is going on (maybe live, who knows) I have two partitions, one for /home (which is me and all sound stuff) one for the /-rest, both around 10 GB in size. Both are ext3 currently, but It would be very easy to change the /home-partition to reiserfs, because there is enough free space on / to move /home there temporarily. Looking a Marks fs-benchmarks, ext3 is first of all bad at disk writes. I don't write much outside /home, only to /tmp and I could symlink that over to /home/tmp or such. Does this all sound like a good strategy? Changing / to reiser would be much harder and would require repartitioning if I don't want to have /boot on reiser, which I wouldn't want to for named reasons. ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org__
