Hi. I've just been reading Distrowatch, and frankly it's got me a bit worried as I've been using ext4 for almost everything recently; http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20121105#qa Has anyone seen this article, and if so, should we avoid ext4 for the time being? Which is the best file system to use other than ext4, especially for save files and hard drive installs? Ext2/3? XFS? Reiserfs? Thanks in advance, CP . _________________ Pentium IV/3400, 2048 MB of RAM, 80 GB hard drive running Puppy Carolina 006 rc-2, Puppy Slacko 5.5, Manjaro 0.8.5 Cinnamon, Sparky 2.1, CrunchBang 11 "Waldorf," Salix 14 XFCE, OpenSUSE 12.3 KDE, Scientific 6.3 and DescentOS 4.04 beta. |

Yeah, I read that article too, and I'd like to know as well. _________________  "...l'industrie de l'informatique n'aura besoin que de très peu de temps pour ramener l'humanité aux dessins rupestres." (M. Goebbel, Order of the Command Line; [ma trad.]) |

Ext4 bug - No need to panic! by Oliver Diedrich Much ado about an ultimately irrelevant issue: a bug in the ext4 filesystem has turned out only to be exposed when several exotic options are combined. Apparently, the problem has only affected a single user. ==> http://www.h-online.com/open/features/Comment-Ext4-bug-No-need-to-panic-1738995.html http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/Ext4-bug-patched-1741014.html |

Thanks for clearing that up. It seems it's much ado about nothing as is often the case.
