Snapshotting and block-level checksumming (ZFS) are certainly nice if you can justify the system complexity and RAM suck, not to mention building a local kernel if your distro isn't a copyright scofflaw [**cough** Canonical **cough**]. ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
