I hope you are joking about that. A file system always takes years to mature to the point where it is reliable enough for serious data. btrfs doesn't even have its basic feature set ready yet, never mind having it tested. If i was joking it would be full of smiley's
Get back to me in 2015, then we can talk about using btrfs for serious things
When reiserfs was new, it crashed, I lost data. When xfs (for linux) was new, it crashed, I lost data.
Not had Reisefs crash not had Xfs crash had all versions of Ext* crash and burn to many times
reiserfs and (especially) xfs today are stable and reasonably reliable. It will take a while for btrfs to reach that point, no matter how much we trust the developers of it

Well i would far rather see man power going into BTRFS than any on ext* Personally i think we can get rid of Ext* quick enough . Think i may try anh experiment when i have a spare drive ti install 11.4 on and set it up to boot on Xfs and home on Btrfs see how it goes anything but Ext* Pete . -- Powered by openSUSE 11.3 (x86_64) Kernel: 2.6.34.7-0.7-desktop KDE Development Platform: 4.5.5 (KDE 4.5.5) "release 1" 18:48 up 2 days 1:24, 4 users, load average: 0.00, 0.02, 0.00 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
