2011-08-10 Thread Michael

I'd like to suggest using nilfs2 as Filesystem for / during installation.
I'm used to flagging the bug type as enhancement for suggestions... found no 
such possibility though...

JFFS2 is meant to run on raw flash block devices, not on SD/MMC which have some 
firmware already to do wear leveling.
I think your original NILFS suggestion is better. Testing it is pending on 
nilfs utils with resize support getting a stable release and stabilization of 
NILFS as a whole.

nilfs2 is unstable (see the big capitalized warning in dmesg if you load
the module), it is in flux and there is no guarantee for backwards
compatibility between nilfs2 versions. while it might be fine if you
never upgrade, from kernel 2.6.37 on our kernels are packaged and
upgradeable in ubuntu, nobody can guarantee that i.e. a switch to 3.0
wont break nilfs2 compatibility.

jffs2 is really old and obsolete, even if we would run our rootfs from
NAND there is ubifs for such cases nowadays.
