Dear ALL,
I got the FC5 DVD and i tried to do a fresh install on my laptop with
reiserfs after the installation when I rebooted
The system after booting the kernel when its trying to start services,
for each thing it shown me “Unable to open
shared object libc.so” than I booted again from dvd in rescue mode and
do the chroot to my installation but I was not
able o find libc.so in /usr/lib or in /usr/local/lib, than i repeat the
installation 2 time but same thin with reiserfs than I installed
FC5 with ext3 and worked fine for me.
Does any body else faced this problem with reiserfs? what is the issue?
I have faced strange issues with FC4 also (with reiserfs)
Why fedora does support reiserfs properly?
Except for the /boot partition, reiserfs should work properly with
selinux=0 added to the bootloader. Reiserfs 4 is supposed to be able to
handle SELinux, reiserfs current has no way to store selinux file content.
The issue requiring an ext3 /boot partition is related to grub capabilities.
XFS, I have not tried. I believe an ext3 /boot partition is best for
this filesystem choice. I do not know if SELinux content can be stored
in XFS efficiently.

Another question, which is the best file system i.e. secure, fast and
reliable, ext3, reiserfs or Xfs?
Thanks.
