Oh how I love Linux!

I am running Mepis 6.0 with Reiser FS.  Today, it couldn't access my home 
directory on hda3.  Everyone in the office of course started jabbing me about 
Linux.  I said give me an hour.  (Suspect hard drive issues)

Booted the live CD, ran reiserfs --check, found I had to rebuild the tree.  20 
minutes later, back in business!!

Told them to try that with WinCrap, but if they needed to, they can borrow my 
Live CD anytime to rescue their data before having to reinstall everything 
again!  

I am going to replace the drive though, as this has happened before, and my 
data is rather critical.  I back it all up, thank God!  

Sorry, just had to share!
