Excuse me, but what is this JFS? I tried googling but I came up with http://inet.uni2.dk/~jemor/jfs.htm which didn't seem right. Seeing as it is spoken of along with reiserfs, I assume that it (jfs, along with xfs) is a filesystem, like ext3 or vfat.
It's NOT broken. JFS is a file system that is a gift from IBM. Both JFS and reiserfs are journal type file systems and are, IMHO, far better than all others. I've been using reiserfs exclusively for almost 3 years with NO problems......."solid as a grape ape!" ;) Fred -- Planet Earth - a subsidiary of Microsoft. We have no bugs in our software, Never!
