Posted by timothy on from the big-essin'-deal dept.

An anonymous reader writes "DragonFly BSD 2.2 is now available. The second release to feature the HAMMER (versioning, among other things) filesystem — now considered production-ready — it includes 'major stability improvements across the board, new drivers, much better pkgsrc support and integration.' Apart from the CD ISO, this release has a DVD ISO with 'a fully operational X environment,' as well as a bootable USB disk-key image."

  1. xfs sucks by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    what's the deal with you xfs fanatics? I recently created a 300 gig xfs logical volume (for holding large media files) and exported it via nfs. After copying 4 files to it (less than 2 gigs of data), it had fucked itself up and was completely unrecoverable. syslog showed it barfing and a quick google search showed this was a fairly common problem. Seriously, I want to know: does xfs suck, or do the linux kernel developers suck?
