If you have tune2fs you can always do "tune2fs -j /dev/hda3" to
turn an ext2 fs into an ext3 by adding a journal.

OK, I guess there's a consensus that having reiserfs in the
default config is a good thing. I'll check it in to unstable.

I'm keen we get to the bottom of this. Any chance one of you
could do the following: Do an out-of-the-box SuSE install into a
single partition, reboot onto another partition, mount and tar
up the SuSE file system (tar jcpf), then make it available for me
to download. I'll then pull it and take a look. 

Thanks,
Ian
