thanks Theodore ext3 is so robust
In theory, running journalled filesystem without barriers in write-back mode is very bad idea... Unfortunately, it is what I have been doing for years now: x60's disk does not seem to support barriers. ext3 survived.
Today I was trying to debug iommu problems after resume, apparently overwriting beggining of partition with some random data. ext3 fsck just used backup superblock...
Thanks!
