Are there any potential problems with using ext3?

I haven't hit any so far. It doesn't seem noticably slower to me. The biggest potential problem that I see is that this is a pretty out of date version of ext3 and I don't really know what kind of bugs may be lurking. I've got one bug that I just discovered. This does not work quite right on a dual drive empeg. When the player remounts the drives after a sync it throws a stack dump and exits. It only seems to happen on my dual drive player and I don't think it happens every time. I may just need a larger journal file or something since the second drive in my dual drive player is quite a bit larger (30 Gig vs 10) than the other drives I am working with. I am not up for fighting with it tonight though. -Mike
