Actually just because something has bugs in it, it does not mean that we should abandon it. A nice way is to, well, correct the bugs. Bearing this in mind, Linux people are doing something which *is* correct with Reiserfs. But advertizing Reiserfs as the 'One True FS(TM)' which should also be used on production machines, is wrong -- with that I can agree any time. > Anybody knows why they waste so much resources on reiser when there are > much better tools from SGI and IBM? Dunno, my expertise in Linux lore is not *that* good to know why things are done the way they are. I've heard complaints for xfs (requires vfs caching to be disabled), but since I don't know what the exact differences of Reiserfs and xfs/jfs are (both in features, and bugs, err, flaws, err, 'known problems'), I'd better shut up now :-) -giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
