In 11.0 there is basic support ( kernelmodule and utilities) for ext4 but no support for installation on ext4. Will there be support for installation on ext4 in 11.1 ? Or is ext4 still considered too unstable ?
We're doing a massive redesign of the partitioner for 11.1 and I'm not sure whether we can add ext4 support. The kernel and base tools will support it, so installing on ext3 and running tune2fs is one option,
What about adding some text to the new partitioner page briefly outlining how to do this? e.g.
It's a wiki - go ahead ;)
"Ext4: Not currently available in this partitioner tool - please select ext3 and, after installation, run tune2fs option option to convert."
AFAIR: tune2fs -E test_fs /dev/sd... and then change fstab to use ext4dev for the partition hope that's all, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Director Platform/openSUSE, aj@suse.de SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
