BINGO...
That's the little hang point that a lot have missed. The bug was introduced
recently and is still there.
That said, I've had no problems using it on either laptops, desktops or servers.
The one big selling point is... you can always go back to ext2 when ever you
wish, with nothing more than a single command. Try doing that with reiser, xfs,
jffs, etc...
