I'm a big fan of ext2 for /boot.
It is about as simple as it gets and everything out there can read it.
But the boot / root volume is on SSD and I want to exploit it _and_ preserve maximum lifetime (or whatever tradeoff I can decide is optimum between those to goals, to the extent they conflict). And I don't much care about what "out there" can understand the format. If the openSUSE installer disc can, little else matters on that front. (I just tried to run MemTest86+ from the current UBCD disc (5.0.3), and it failed to run, stalling immediately after presenting its initial display and showing zeroes for the memory speed...) I've read some more and am inclined away from NILFS, but I've got more studying to do.
FYI: Likely by 12.1, opensuse may just have a ext4 kernel driver and it will handle ext2/ext3/ext4, so you get the same driver for all 3 of those.
There are just so very many numbers between 11.4 and 12.1...
