Journaling Filesystem?

Journaling Filesystem?

[Sacha J. Bernstein]

Is there a working journaling filesystem that works with PPC linux?  What
does everyone alse to do handle the embedded devices that people may just
walk up and unplug?  I use ReiserFS on x86, but I've heard that it may not
work with PPC.  I haven't tried to check myself...

Thanks!

It's true, ReiserFS doesn't work on ppc.  I know people are working on
it, but I am not sure where the current info lives.

I believe JFFS works on ppc if you have MTD working on your board.  Of
course, that doesn't help if don't have flash.

I was just about to ask the same question.
I need a journalling fs for our ppc ( 8xx ) system.
All I have found so far seems to be very beta.

PPC itself seems to be very beta, so why do you care about a beta
quality filesystem?!?

Well, Tom, I disagree with you.

I don't know much about Linux/PPC for desktop machines,
but Linux as an embedded OS for embedded processors such
as the mpc8xx series is very stable.

If you do it the right way.
