than you did not hear of the '2.6.17 kernels XFS eats data' stories. If you 
have xfs and boot any 2.6.17.X with X<5 kernels, XFS will be corrupted.


Most reiserfs horror stories are from early 2.4 kernels anyway.

And if someone has lots of reiser corruption, there are really only two 
options left:

something is wrong with his hardware
he optimized his system to death.

He did not even tell, how he ruled out hardware problems.

I have seen data corruption because of flaky cables, bad PSU, bad harddisks 
(IBM deathstar), bad ram....
