In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I had a nightmare problem with Linux filesystems. Yes, i'm just a newbie recreational linux user. But i had installed mandrake 6.0, which apparently had serious filesystem bugs that would corrupt data if the cdrom was mounted during shutdown. I had to reinstall because of that, and even after DL'ing the patch, since the RPM had to be forced and never did seem to work right, i never trusted it. -jm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
