ext3 is a journaling filesystem which does help a great deal in preventing file corruption however it is not something I personally would rely on. One should only use ext2 anymore where journaling is not needed such as the boot partition of a nix system. Reason why you do not want to use ext3 in the boot partition is simply because you have very little risk in corruption since you will not mount this partition after boot and the journaling just adds extra overhead. -- m1abrams ------------------------------------------------------------------------ m1abrams's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=850 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80447 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
