I thought my data was safe on Linux but now I know better, I use ext3 but am considering either Reiserfs, or most likely xfs.
I've found that Reiserfs is still a work in progress and isn't that hard to cause data loss on, at least in 2.4.x -- I think others on #alug have said similar things, but I forget who.
I used Reiserfs for a short while and had it do some strange things so I went back to ext2 and now to ext3 with no problems. Cheers, BJ
