I have to move between BSD and Linux on one system quite a bit, and I
was wondering if there were any reasons to avoid EXT3 on a filesystem
(such as /dev/ad0s1), as opposed to using the more standard BSD setups
(such as UFS on /dev/ad0s1a)? I'm thinking mostly in terms of
reliability, but also in terms of flexibility and speed.

Is there anything that should absolutely stay in UFS (such as /boot?)

as a side-note :
last time i used an ext3 usb-disc on FreeBSD 5.4 there was still a
problem with automatically unmounting at a shutdown/reboot leaving the
ext3-filesystem "dirty", and could not be mounted after the reboot
until a fsck was done, haven't tried this with 6.x yet
