Niltze [Hello], Mr. 'Team OS/2' peer -
Have you considered using JFS for your /boot partition(s)? Just a
suggestion, of course!
The "J" in JFS means journal…, correct? My use of EXT2 was intended
originally due
to lack of need for journal on small file system with few files, rarely
written
to, and infrequently read from.
Indeed, until a crash leaves your EXT[x-y-z] /boot partition trashed but
you don't worry because you create frequent backups of those /boot
files/and or partition, right? ;-)
That situation hasn't materially changed. I've
never used JFS on Linux or OS/2.
OS/2 LVM enabled multiple JFS partitions and/or disks to be accessed as
a single letter drive:. Quite useful except that OS/2 LVM was not
compatible with GNU/Linux, i.e.,

EXT4 with absent journal and 256 byte inodes will
do for the foreseeable future. :~D
