I've been using ResierFS since June or so.  I love it.  It's excellent. 
Note that it does not prevent data loss due to powerfailure or crash, it
keep the filesystem in a usable state.  

Here's the ReiserFS site.

My experience has been very good, but also note that it is harder to
recover the system if say you install a new kernel rpm and forget to run
mkinitrd.  :-)  I did this.  You have to do some really whack things to
get it going again.  Maybe I'll do a 'system recovery' talk.
