OK, that's a bit better, but I suppose I'd really like it to be
running something other than ext2 if possible. Was nothing else
supported in the Xebian kernel? That would be unfortunate. If ext3 is
supported then you could give it a journal now, right? (Need to check
that but I think you can turn the journal on and off when you want.)

I don't know if the kernel supports other filesystems - it didn't give me a choice of filesystem when I did the install. I don't see any reference to filesystem choice on the xbox-linux site either. It does seem odd, now that you mention it. Gentoox appears to support a full range, so there's no real reason why Xebian can't too.


The install is done by script though, so in theory it wouldn't be too hard to change those few lines involving building the loopback file and mounting it to use ext3. I'm not really comfortable enough with loopback filesystems to tackle that on my own though without doing some reading first. I'm a little hindered by the fact that I don't have a copy of the script laying around either...

The nice thing with doing multiple installs though is that once you've got an image built, you should be able to just copy over the files and touch those config files involving network identity to give the machines unique hostnames and IPs.
