Barry,

LVM comes in 7.3 also sir... So does JFS. LVM, in it's current incarnation in Completely GPL... including the software needed to "configure it"

8.0 is a Great Stab at the (L)user community. To me it feels GOOEY.... not GUI. But my wife likes it... Prefers it actually compared to XP.

I have XP now on 2 machines at home... RH8.0 dual booting... Big change from before... Wife selects Linux all the time... even for the games... My big problem is ~4600MB... GEEZ!

New Ummm, I figured that out
But so was GFS.

And why toss in JFS? JFS is an IBM product,
and I believe IBM REALLY loves Linux, and
their business model allows for a huge
amount of contribution.

Much different than Sistina, a 2 product
company, one of which WAS GPL, but no longer.

As far a the 7.3 to 8.0 difference, I don't
use any file system or vm or raid driver that
has been out, in use, for quite some time.
And on the corp machines, no low level
infrastucture piece that is not "packaged" for
a while. Yeah, I'm a baby. In this case, I
have been aware of LVM for a while, but never
looked closely since I've been mostly out
of sysadmining for abou a year.
