I've just watched over some of the gjournal threads. My main question now is, whats the difference from gjournal and softupdates in case of reability ? Wasn't SU design to make the use of journals needless? As far i remember, SU was designed to write in the cache in such a way, that whenever the system crashed, the FS is always consistent. Only bgfsck has todo a snapshot and cleanup "unused" space that got lost cause the SU did not finish as the crash occured. Maybe someone can give me some light into that :). I always tought that *BSD don't need a journaling FS as it has already SU Greetings Teufel
