Forward this from the linux-xfs list, in hoping that decision-makers will consider XFS as the default suse OS install choice.
I use XFS, but it has issues when used for the root (/) filesystem, it is incompatible with grub in the same partition (there are bugzillas for this, solution: known issue non solvable). So, grub has to go to the mbr or you need an extra /boot partition. Therefore, the ext3/4 family is a better choice as default filesystem, because it works on all scenarios. Those that know or have different needs, can and do use xfs. I use xfs and reiserfs. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 11.2 x86_64 "Emerald" GM (Elessar))
