I generally use ext2 because there is no journaling, which is nicer to older computers and slower processors and sluggish I/O connections. Of course, on this machine, it would matter very little which filesystem I used. So yes, there is a reason for it, but on this hardware, it’s underkill. Just a habit, I guess. :roll:

Do you have any special reason for it?

I like your blog very much!. I find many CLI apps you mention very usefull. Thanks a lot!.

Cheers!.

There’s also a thread in the forums, iirc, with a screenshot script. I added a few more options and images for it as well, like other distros, but I don’t think I posted it…
