Which is exactly what I'm planning on trying now... 5-10gig XFS partition
for buffering & nothing else, and ext3 for saved recordings etc.

Or maybe just a small FS for the ring buffer and ext for the rest. Then it 
doesn't really matter if it crashes and you get fast ring buffer handling. 
That was the initial problem as I have understood it.
