From: Chris Tapp [mailto:opensource@...] Sent: Friday, October 28, 2011 03:11 PM To: yocto@... <yocto@...> Subject: [yocto] Which filesystem for target? A bit of an open-ended question, but... Which is the 'best' filesystem to use for an embedded device that's using a CF card? It needs to survive loss-of-power, have a RO root filesystem, allow user configuration data to persist and (ideally) only use 'Busybox' commands. This seems to imply the use of a partition for booting (mount RO) and a second partition or a loop-device on the boot partition for persistent storage. I would normally go for ext3, but Busybox doesn't support it (afaik). The Busybox tune2fs also only supports -L, so I can't stop 'disk needs checking after <n> mounts' messages. Is btrfs a suitable alternative?
