Hi all,
Will we be seeing btrfs as the default file system in the next versions.
Which purpose would it serve?
There's really a lot's of area where btrfs will become usefull. ( some of them are only avalaible in ZFS actually ) But there's a lot of place to get it stabilize first. and missing important tools like a fsck like :-) Actually (My last check was one month ago) if a corrupt appear, you loose :-(
So I wouldn't see that as a default filesystem in openSUSE yet.
ZFS would be great. Too bad Oracle owns it.
Going back quite a while there was an article comparing ZFS and BTRFS. When mature BTRFS seems a better way to go. It was saiway back that Linus was using BTRFS as his root filesystem. I have ha it as a backup of my systems for a long time. On the Beagleboard (ARM) I shall be using it tomorrow as my root filesystem on Ubuntu ARM - as usual, while I was out today, the postman left a note to say he couldn't deliver my new 32Gig micro SD card I need to try it out. http://lwn.net/Articles/342892/ Regards Sid.
Too bad about the micro card. Maybe tomorrow. My concerns are about power outages or if for some reason a "hard reset" may be required. -- Cheers! Roman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
