Many people have problems with the partition limit on Ext2 filesystems being very small by current standards. It feels smaller all the time as people have larger disks and often larger filesystems. It's worth mentioning that 64-bit machines (ia64, alpha) will not have this limitation. - -Note that, while the official CVS sources still suffer of this problem, recent (as of 2007) Debian GNU Hurd distributions **do not have this limit anymore**.
