Post #250,505 by pwhysall 4/1/06 3:25:38 AM Reply	Bad Idea XFS poses problems for grub, and often isn't included in kernels used for recovery/live CDs. Use ext3. It has the most mature tools for recovery, should you need it, which, if you turn journalling on, you won't.

Post #250,527 by folkert 4/1/06 12:03:33 PM Reply	As of right now... I can only think of 2 fringe recovery/Live CDs that don't have it on ones that are current. TomRB and Damn Small. Most (if not all others I have tried and seen) now by default have xfs in the initrd, or compiled in directly But, since grub dunnah like xfs (really it is only the XFS_Freeze that has to happen when writing the grub files, that causes errors regularly), I am using EXT2 for /boot since I automount it read-only at boot it doesn't need anything. Only time I make it read-write is for kernel and grub updates. Beyond that, its not a big deal. -- [link\|mailto:greg@gregfolkert.net\|greg], [link\|http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry\|REMEMBER ED CURRY!] @ *i_wethey* Freedom is not FREE.
