what ext filesystem for flash memory card?

2011-05-21 Thread jidanni
What filesystem shall I put on my 4GB SD flash card? ext2, ext3 or ext4, or ...?
I already erased VFAT.
Also shall I have and ext2 partition for .debs, whose safety isn't
important, and an ext4 partition for my more valuable data?
Will the journals really wear out card faster?

If you are going to use the SD card mainly as a data storage device for 
linux/unix/bsd systems and care about compatibility-without-hassle, I'd 
go for a unique ext3 partition.
