 | | | file system preference? | file system preference? 2003-12-20 - By Jonathan Horne
Back
Recently I learned that I don 't have to live with the file system that red
hat recommends (ext3), and that FC1 and even 9 down to I believe 7.3 had the
option to begin with 'linux reiserfs ' or 'linux jfs ', (maybe there were even
some other options?).
Ive loaded up an FC1 box and a 9 box both with a try at reiserfs, and so far
performance is defiantly good, but I don 't think im tuned enough to know the
difference.
Does anyone have any file system opinions they might like to share? Im at
the beginning of what looks like a really good article on the IBM site
(
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-fs.html
), but I think
I would really benefit from hearing what my redhat peers have to say on this
topic.
Thanks,
Jonathan
