Re: Linux filesystems was [Re: Debian cd supporting ext4.]

I have done some testing with Debian stable in Virtualbox and I have
to say XFS works as advertised. I did power off the virtual machine
several times when working in Gnome / copying files. And I did power
off the virtual 5 times in a row when booting. Nothing happened. Each
time the virtual machine booted without problems.

I have to say, file system creating and file system checking is
lightning fast. I am very impressed. Next I'll test XFS on my laptop.
