I used it for a bit and never had any problems (in so far as my machine
didn't crash at all) but I'm currently running ext3 and this seems even
better - don't need to reformat partitions to use it and if you change
your mind, you can unmount and remount as ext2. The other advantage
from what I can remember is that the recent ext2fs utils will work with
ext3.
