Must be the season for it. In the past couple of weeks I had two
machines with filesystems corrupted so badly I had to run "reiserfsck
--rebuild-tree", whatever that does. It meant I had to take the drive
out of the machine and put it in another working machine to do it,
because reiserfsck refuses to rebuild the tree on a read-only mounted
filesystem.

I'll be switching to something else this weekend, methinks.
