Fedora Core 4 Test 1 slipsFedora Core 4 Test 1 slipsPosted Feb 24, 2005 6:41 UTC (Thu) by p9ing (guest, #1561)In reply to: Fedora Core 4 Test 1 slips by jd Parent article: Fedora Core 4 Test 1 slips
There are xfs, jfs, reiser, modules in the update kernel RPMS at least. I can't recall whether they are there at install time.
FC3 is the best hardware support I've seen since 7.2.
DAG claims that not all repositories "play nice" together, but several but not all of them are merging source trees, making the RPMS interchangable -- with yum.
Sorry, I just don't get where you are coming from.

Filesystems and repositories Posted Feb 24, 2005 7:58 UTC (Thu) by jmalcolm (guest, #8876) [Link] Fedora kernels support all the major filesystems through modules. If the initrd.img loads the modules for your filesystem it will boot Fedora fine. This is true at install time as well. I have more than one Fedora system using XFS. I can RPM a stock Fedora kernel and reboot without problems.
It is true that only Ext3 (and Ext2) is available for new installs though. This is something I do not like about RHEL/Fedora. I believe there is a conflict between SELinux and the other journaled filesystems but that might be changing.

As for repositories...there seems to be a move to try and unify the major RPM providers.
