* netfilter/iptables instead of ipchains: Better packet filtering, e.g. stateful filtering, many more matches on packets with lots of kernel modules which can be easily be written. * Logical Volume Manager (LVM) * File systems: ext3, reiserfs, tmpfs (RAM based FS that shares the swap space), devfs (device file system) * Bett^WNew VM (virtual memory) system * Better USB support I probably missed some points. urs -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
