The filesystem is UFS, very similar to Solaris's UFS. Compared to ext2, UFS is dog slow, but better at recovering from power failures and other crashes. (Ext2 takes more chances on metadata updates. Saves time, but might not recover.) It is not journaled, so you still have to run fsck. OTOH, ext2 has not lost any of my files yet. ReiserFS will, once it's stable*, give the performance of ext2 with the reliability of journaling. * I don't believe it's stable just because it's in the 2.4 tree. I'll believe it's stable when people stop talking about it on kernel-traffic. -- Bob Miller K<bob> kbobsoft software consulting http://kbobsoft.com [EMAIL PROTECTED]
