Fedora Core "One major feature present in Fedora 9 will be the ext4 implementation. The new filesystem will not be the default for the distribution, but will be available for users and systems administrators to enable. New functionality includes larger capacities and online defragmentation, for better performance and more reliability. To find out more, we talked with Eric Sandeen, Fedora project member and filesystem developer at Red Hat."

I didn't ment it on a functional level, but on a more abstract level.

But at least we agree on the fact that btrfs looks very promising :-)

I don't see any mention in that link of CRC checking the passengers. At the end of the run, how do I know that I have the same passengers I started out with? How do I know that one of them was not maliciously replaced in transit? How do I know that when I go to check the passenger upon arrival, I won't just find garbage... the remains of a cheetohs bag? Or, worse yet, what if one got nulled out by a particularly nasty bump along the way?

Oh fsck! ;-)
