I use it only because it sounds cool. :D

Oh, and it's supposedly impossible to undelete files from (all my disks are encrypted anyways, so that's a moot point though).
Have a question? for f in $(ls /usr/bin/); do man $f; done :lol:

ext3

#35 Post by 987687 »

I use Ext3 now, but my external hard drive is formatted with hfsplus because its shared with macosx. and osx won't mount ext3... But I'm getting a new computer after the summer and I don't know what I'm going to use. I am thinking XFS or JFS, I will have to do more research on that. Or maybe ext4, I'll have to see what happens over the summer.

Yes, do the research. Consider several partitions with two or more file systems, depending upon advantage.

Ext3. Any compelling reason to use the others?
