I believe ext3 is what knoppmyth uses.

Yes I've read this as well.  I'm currently using
reiserfs but plan to upgrade to XFS as soon as I get
done with an editing project I'm doing on my main box.
 (need free space to transfer the video off my raid-5
array, which is what I'm using for video storage in
Myth).

Looks like XFS will be included in the 2.4.24 kernel
and it is already in the 2.6 series.
