While watching S. King's IT on tv. tonight... with the wifey ofcourse... I upgraded my laptop to use ext3.
Once installed, I did a couple of tests... namely... I removed the battery and then unplugged the wall adpater from the laptop... while in the middle of a compile session... Upon reboot, it was proclamed that the root system had to be.... I think it said "re-journaled"... anyway... an eye blink later I had my laptop back and ready for use! Amazing! I did this a COUPLE of times and each time the filesystem check was less than a second or two and this was on a 12gig file system! The same fsck on a 12gig ext2 would last forever... I'm royally impressed! And the movie stunk... Cheers all and goodnight. -- ****************************************************************************** Registered Linux User Number 185956 http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&safe=off&group=linux 11:15pm up 7 days, 10:16, 3 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list Archives, Digests, etc at http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
