ext2 is just fine.

9.17 disk GB == 9 170 000 000 bytes. Now if you define a GB as 1024*1024*1024
you'll see that 9 170 000 000 bytes == 8.54 GB. And that is the way Linux
shows it to you. 9.17 GB is marketing speak for a 8.5 GB disk.
Also, ext2 reserves 5% of the available data for emergencies (only root
can write to it) and for performance reasons, speed and avoidance of
fragmentation. So 8.54 GB - 5% == 8.1 GB.
