Hi Bringfried,
This is still risky.
Reiser4 has bugs in INSERT_FLOW balancing primitive, which is used by
cryptcompress file plugin and unix (default) file plugin in the case
when file is built of fragments (tails).
For now only files built of extents are safe, so make sure that you
format your partitions with "-o formatting=extents" option.
Once the INSERT_FLOW primitive is fixed, I'll report to the mailing
list.
Thanks,
Edward.
