"Keerect" except XFS isn't a usable file system for 9.1beta1. No XFS modules at all. I'm not certain about ReiserFS, but ext3 is there, however crappy it runs on my machine. That's why I was using XFS since 8.2 beta; it worked. It's a beta so I suppose the best method is trial and error to find what works adequately as I did before I settled on XFS. Besides; I have three (used under Mandrake) partitions that are roughly 30 GB each and XFS worked the smoothest for this hardware. Personally I'll be waiting for beta2. Or at least another kernel.
