Hi,

I'm reading this thread, but I actually don't understand.
I installed Milestone2, as by default, on a ext4 partition, and the system was
able to boot from it.
Why do you say that GRUB can not handle ext4?
The only problem I had, and that's why I reinstalled with ext3, was that my
opensuse 11.0 didn't want to start. It complained about some unknown options
on the filesystem.
Which leads me to the question:
Why is ext4 the default filesystem, if it still causes problems?
Isn't it better to keep a working default and work on the new version until
it's failsave before putting it as the new default?
Thanks
Karl

It's not the machine. It's GRUB not being able to boot from ext4.
