[OpenAFS] Filesystem possibilities for /vicepa

Hello,

Well, it seems that afscache works well enough on a loop-mounted ext2.  However,
I would like to use a journalling filesystem for the AFS filesystem itself.

Does anyone have any experience/recommendations as to which ones get along
with AFS?  I can choose between ext3, JFS, XFS, and ReiserFS on Linux.  A
test install seems to have ReiserFS working acceptably (and fast!) underneath
AFS, but I am concerned that the fsck utilities for these filesystems might
not understand the AFS structure, and end up munging it.

Just wanted to get some opinions before I bet the farm permanently on
ReiserFS; thanks for any input.
