Reading the md-files via vim (for example) would imply to grab all references by hand.

Same here. When I built my current rig several years ago, I switched to ext4 from reiserfs myself. At the time, there was very little development and its future was uncertain since the guy that came up with it was shall we say, no longer available. I haven't looked into it but is it even maintained like it should be or just sitting out there with the occasional patch up by whoever has a few minutes? If I were building a new rig today, I don't think I'd even consider reiserfs. Dale :-) :-)

However, if you still find it hard to read, perhaps syntax highlighting in a fancy text editor can help approximate the intended effects of the markup. Also, there are markdown-to-HTML translators.

In normal use it really doesn't have that much impact. The poster wasn't asking for a recommendation for mythtv storage specifically. I believe that back when I was running mythtv I still used ext4 because the deletion issue wasn't actually that large in impact in practice, but I did modify the sources to increase the buffer sizes (otherwise I'd sometimes lose frames whether I was deleting stuff or otherwise, as linux io queuing still has a lot of room to improve even with ionice). If you do have a situation where you do a lot of large file deletions then I'd definitely consider that a reason to steer away from ext4 specifically. Xfs does handle this fine. I'm not sure about zfs or the other options - I suspect some will work and some won't. Again, zfs isn't really something I'd just use "by default." Really to get more specific you'd need to know exactly how the system will be used, and how willing to deal with issues the admin is. There is a lot to be said for "just works." -- Rich

This was probably 10ish years ago, but I switched my multimedia filesystems from ext* to xfs because deleting a large file (several GB) on an ext filesystem would basically lock up my machine for tens of seconds. The seemed to be a known problem in the MythTv world and the standard solution was to use xfs instead. Sure enough, deleting large files on xfs didn't cause problems. * It was probably ext3 back then, so it's possible none of this applies to ext4. -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwardsYow!

[gentoo-user] Wiki-viewer anyone?
Hi, The u8g8lib, which contains libraries to drive a great amount of displays for mainly embedded electronics has a wiki on github, which can be oficially git-pulled as a local copy...which I did. Now I have tons of *.md (markdown) -files instead of html and I dont know of any handy viewer for these. Since I want to update the repo from time to time I dont want to convert them. Is there any recommended quick and clean way to view these files on the fly as they would be html? Thanks a lot for any help in advance! Cheers Meino

I doubt reiserfs will eat your data, but it has been generally falling out of use. IMO if your goal isn't to experiment with alternate filesystems, there are really only a couple of mainstream choices out there for a general-purpose workstation filesystem: 1. Ext4: This should just be your default if you don't want to care about your filesystem. It is ubiquitous for a reason. It won't eat your data, and everybody knows what to expect from it. If your filesystem is fairly small and being used for a root, or otherwise has a lot of small files, then make sure to override the inode defaults. Other than that it just works. 2. Xfs: If you absolutely have to mess with a filesystem (especially for multimedia) this isn't a bad alternative. You won't be able to shrink it, but for the most part it behaves a lot like ext4. Zfs is starting to cross over into experimental territory, IMO, though it generally is fairly stable. I care about data integrity, so it is what I tend to run (well, aside from one btrfs filesystem I haven't switched over). I had a SATA port misbehave and spread silent corruption all over a disk, and zfs got me through it without anything but some warning alerts/etc and a need to rebuild after I moved the drive to another controller (and marked a big X over the port). If I were using mdadm I'd have had to rebuild from backups at a cost of hours of downtime (a fairly large array), and might have lost recently-written data entirely as might have been in use for longer before detecting the error, leaving me a dilemma of figuring out which backup versions were good, with the answer being something older. Even if I didn't have redundancy zfs (or btrfs) would have complained loudly about the issue. I do use snapshots because they're cheap, but rolling back is pretty rare. Unless you have a very specialized need I wouldn't go messing with block sizes or anything like that in any of these cases. -- Rich

Thanks Stroller, I had to somehow use my own Gentoo image when I first installed these as they didn't officially provide any, glad to hear they do now. >> First - are you using 'Auto Configure Networking' (is it enabled >> or disabled in your Linode options)? > > Enabled. > > /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/conf.d/net both say "This file is > automatically generated on each boot with your Linode's current > network configuration." > > I'm not sure I'd dare change it, to be honest. Well, I'm not so worried about that since you can always access the VM using the LISH console to change something like that back. I'll experiment with this on my Dev VM that isn't mission critical. I migrated it last night, and it came up just fine, so hopefully my Production VM will be just as painless. >> Second, do you have rc_sys defined, or are you using auto-detect (is it >> just commented out)? > > Just commented out. This is the one I'm worried about - how to change it back if it totally breaks the ability to even boot.

I've long relied on ReiserFS for everything except /boot & have never had any problems with my files or drives.

I bought a USB dongle for that but it turns out it can only do the original 10Mbit/s, half-duplex; much slower than wifi and even somewhat slower than the WAN connection here.
