Why ext2?

Lowest overhead.

Fastest general purpose filesystem.

Greatest HD yield.
and ist dead beyond recover on almost every third crash. ;)

Not my experience at all and I have had years of experience with ext2 on
servers and workstations.

Further, the system in question is a relatively new laptop with a good
battery.

I don't know about you SuSE guys but Slackware doesn't experience that many
hard crashes that aren't power or hardware related. The further fact is
trying to recover data from a failed Reiser filesystem can be a nightmare
if not impossible.

i stick to reiser.

Do as you wish but why not ext3?

I will take stability everytime over a shiny feature list every time.
