BTW -- I've been running XFS as my root fs for 6 weeks now.
And? Curious minds like to know ;-)
Well -- no bugs, crashes etc. Runs like a charm. It is on my laptop, so wrt performance I cannot say anything. And logrecovery is really fast. Seems to me as a good fs, and I'll not be surprised if it makes it into the kernel pretty soon.
There's still some issues with it though; it is a port of the Irix XFS, so it is not really finished yet. Haven't looked into 1.0 yet though.
I have a question wrt XFS... does it have the extended attributes, as ext2 does? So you can set the t bit, etc? ReiserFS doesn't, and it bothers me. If XFS does, then that is a step in the right direction. Thanks for any info, Steven
