I partially agree with this statement, I've seen windoze machines with 30
megs of lost chains, sure they need to check the drive more often but
the point is the os shouldn't generate them in the first place.
That reminds me, anyone know of a disk defragmenter for linux ?

to do is close everything and the problem would be solved.
