I say "Particularly on a Laptop" because laptops are the most likely computers to be hard rebooted (i.e. running out of battery power), and because of this you definitely want a journaled file system to minimize data loss and fs corruption, and I've found XFS to be the most robust and least prone to data loss. Also laptops tend to be turned on and off more than desktops, and if you use a journaled fs, in the case of a improper shutdown, you only have to restore the journal the next time the computer boots, instead of checking the entire drive, cutting down on boot times. --Alex On Wed, 2002-06-19 at 05:34, Alexei Khlebnikov wrote: > On 15 Jun 2002 14:02:39 -0700 > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > I would highly > > recommend and xfs install, particularly on a laptop. > > Why "XFS, particularly on a laptop" ? > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
