Kidding I see it supports EXT3 as well (backward compatible of course). Something to think about. Of course if I make a whonking huge Debian NSLU2 dump space it will use SMB to share across network. and then If I have one transportable external for copying data - this method would work great as all data there will be meant to be Public (not locked by access rights)

As far as filesystems go, I have to chime in about JFS, it is awesome.
I started using this because of recommendations made by Wilson at his
MythTV howto and it is lighting fast. I put it inside of LVM for more
flexibility on my MythTV boxes. I once formatted a 400gb partition in
that in like literally 2 seconds, freakin amazing.<br>
