I am using ext3 (wth 4k block size) for a long time. > Partitions: > Do you keep your geo-data in a separate partition? I have a directory for all original geodata files and one for grassdata/. Both are exported and shared through NFS, so that the team members can easily access from their machines. While the geodata/ directory is read-only (to avoid that elaborated data creep into the original files), the grassdata/ directory is write enabled. Like this, thanks to the concept of GRASS data management, we can all work in the same locations (but personal mapsets).
