Star NetBSD: Metadata Journaling Support Added to FFS
Linked by Amjith Ramanujam on Fri 1st Aug 2008 15:32 UTC, submitted by Daniel Sieger
NetBSD Today, support for metadata journaling has been added to NetBSD's implementation of the Berkeley Fast File System (FFS), eliminating the need for lengthy file system checks after a crash or power failure. Support for converting existing file systems to use the new journaling capabilities is provided as well. See the official announcement for all the details.

Did they not have soft-updates previously?



it says in the announcement to remove "softdep" if presnet.

Note that WAPBL is not compatible with soft-dependencies, so please ensure that you first remove the softdep option if present. See the wapbl(4) manual page for more information.
