What about Sun's ZFS? Isn't it supposed to handle power failures and unplugging seamlessly? I think there is some licensing issue that prevents a linux kernel with ZFS to be distributed, but I am sure that can be worked out. I know Solaris, OpenSolaris, NexentaOS, FreeBSD, and MacOS 10.5 Leopard can be configured to work with ZFS. -- Nikhil ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nikhil's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=993 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67523 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
