True, I had forgotten about that. Thanks for the correction. > As already mentioned, using reiserfs on boot is a complete waste. Well, that depends on your viewpoint. The reason I have used reiserfs and xfs on /boot is because that is what all my other filesystems were formatted with. Using the same filesystem for /boot reduced the amount of thinking I had to do when configuring my kernel, initrd, and fstab. Besides, you can format it with --journal-size=513, and with a 1k block size that is only 513k...not exactly a huge waste of space. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
