Mac OS X to Get Journaling FS

Posted by CmdrTaco on Tuesday October 15, 2002 @07:10AM from the journal-this dept.

overunderunderdone writes "According to eWeek, Apple Computer is planning to introduce a new journaling file system code-named 'Elvis' with the 10.2.2 release. Supposedly it will run on top of HFS+ and will be turned off by default. Though it will cost you 10% to 15% performance penalty the article says it is more extensive than NTFS and is on par with BeOS's 64-bit journaling file system. Not surprising since it is being developed by the same person - Dominic Giampaolo." I've been super impressed by OS X having used it as my primary laptop for the last couple weeks. It really is a great unix box- and this is one of the important missing puzzle pieces.

Meet your new boss, same as the old boss.

for all the users crying OSX rulez, dont forget the Freedom in GNU/Linux has a purpose - to avoid being owned by MS or Apple or Sun or many others who would enslave your computing lives.

remember that when you think about OSX.

flaimbait my arse.

Wow Taco, I thought OS X was cool, but seeing that you've actually figured out a way to use an OS as a laptop, you've definitely uncoverd a cool hidden feature on OS X that no else knows about. Maybe that's why Jaguar costs $120 USD, you don't even need a computer to use it!!!
I'm sorry, mod me down now, but it had to be said. :P
