Mick, that's what I was wondering. No evidence either way, that I could find so I decided to make everything ext4. > There's no need for extents on such a small partition, > nor journalling (because you write to /boot so > rarely, the likelihood of a power failure when you're > doing so is minuscule). Yea, sure, but that's not the point. I just wanted to use ext4 for everything. Not on this system, but often, my boot partition is very active, as I copy many kernels there for many different (arch)machines and different hardware (HD, SSD, CF, SD...) I try to make the many systems I admin as homogeneous as possible, hence the switch to ext4 for boot. James
