Then he is guilty till he is proven innocent because he is in jail and has not even been tried. This is very unfair but that is what happens here and the Patriot Act as well where they can spy on you and do whatever the fsck they want to do and get away with it. What has happened to the Bill of Rights? > > BTW Karl is right in his statement, ext3 works fine. I heard there is a new ext4, but it has not been adopted yet by Fedora, maybe it will happen later on after it is more heavily tested and is proven reliable. Also if a user installs fedora to a reiser partition, selinux did not work (had to be disabled) in order to use/install it. If this has changed, someone please comment on this as well. This should be an alternative to the Fedora community which does not want to mess around with selinux and still have Fedora. ---- The predicate of US law is that one is innocent until proven guilty. I believe that they have denied him bail because they consider him a flight risk. As for whatever happened to the Bill of Rights...that's a political discussion that is inappropriate for this list - not that I don't disagree with your questioning it...just that there are better forums for that discussion. As for ReiserFS (and other file systems such as JFS, XFS, ZFS)...I believe that ReiserFS has been hovering in the kernel for some time but it's future is clearly in doubt because of Hans Reiser's legal issues. I am of the belief that JFS is supported by Fedora/Red Hat by default these days. Ext3 is the default but there are many knowledgeable people who believe that some of the other file systems are better suited in many circumstances. I think that Sun's ZFS has caused a lot of people to take notice that much is still lacking in ext2/ext3. -- Craig White <craig@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
