A reiserfs that does not support large files is also ancient. According to the link you provided, reiserfs 3.6.x has LFS and was part of the kernel as of 2.4.1 - which dates back to Jan 2001. > Rats. However, the IBM journal file system does. JFS is already in the kernel - as of 2.4.20. And you can easily patch any post-17 kernel too. I'm running 2.4.20 with JFS112 and reiserfs from 2.4.20 - large files is not a problem on either. I believe ext3 should also be fine with LFS. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zurich http://timian.jessen.ch - an analog report formatter using XSLT. http://www.dansk.org - for alle danskere i udlandet! +------------------------------------------------------------------------ | TO UNSUBSCRIBE from this list: | http://lists.isite.net/listgate/analog-help/unsubscribe.html | | Digest version: http://lists.isite.net/listgate/analog-help-digest/ | Usenet version: news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.analog.general | List archives: http://www.analog.cx/docs/mailing.html#listarchives +------------------------------------------------------------------------
