Actually, Charlie, the bootloader install is only semi-functional on
9.1Beta1. In particular, any adjustments you make to it will be ignored,
both during install and if you use control center--Boot Config

I suspect XFS kernel support is iminent. I vaguely recall that
it's out for now because of a conflict with somethin else in the
current kernel, tho I can't remember what that is.
I've used ReiserFS and tried XFS several times

Hi there:
Maybe It's an old question and man of you have seen
similar questions. But I read the archive and couldn't make up my mind. I am a
newbie to Linux and am willing to buy Mandrake Linux 8.2. But I don't know what

Civileme, (he _The_ Man in these parts) responded.
Your choices are Ext3, Reiser, JFS, and XFS.

Ext3 is also the safest filesystem, because you have the option of journalling
data as well as metadata (the other journalling FSs only journal metadata).
