XFS is great, if you have a 64bit kernel, plenty of RAM, stable hardware and power source. Data recovery after an abrupt power loss or kernel crash is extremely difficult. I have lost several XFS volumes (on IRIX and Linux) due to hardware/power issues -- expect all file/dir names to be renamed with corresponding inode numbers and moved into /lost+found! - Raja _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [email protected] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
