Any feedback from NAMESYS (ReiserFS) people?
No, I've gone down the AFS route to try to find out what's happening. Nothing so far...
I, too, am concerned about XFS support and am leaning towards ResiserFS, however, I want large file support for a DB Server. I'm thinking that I might be able to live with ReiserFS since version 4.x will, hopefully, out in Sept'2002.
I think the XFS guys are better on the ball now, and as the 2.4.x kernel has settled down quite a lot you might find XFS is the best answer if you're happy to recompile your own kernel. I wouldn't base too many hopes on a Sept'2002 deadline for ReiserFS features you want. It's bound to be late, and even if it's not, it'll take time to stablise... I can't remember if the JFS version released as open source supports large files - I think it does. If I'm right that might be your best bet. JFS is fast, reliable, and is very actively maintained. -- 2:23pm up 14 days, 6:04, 1 user, load average: 0.35, 0.15, 0.05
