Hi,
When the Debian installer creates a file system, it reserves 5% of
blocks for root or privileged processes. That's an old default
percentage which could be replaced by a more appropriate amount.
The optimal amount to reserve is probably neither a fixed number of
blocks nor a fixed percentage, but a good estimation for it could be
calculated in the installation script and set e.g. by tune2fs after the
creation of an ext2/3/4 partition.
I don't know very much about the processes of Debian development... so,
should I make an entry about this to a bug database or somewhere?
Thanks for considering it,
Vesa
