Hi,
> XFS is not prone to power failures anymore or it's not an issue on uSD
(without big cache as normal drives)?
i thought it is same to btrfs? i am using xfs on desktop for storing
data like films, audio and other big and non-critical data, have no
problems for 5 years. i've heard about 0 files, after power failure,
which were somehow intelligently described (and seem fixed
http://xfs.org/index.php/XFS_FAQ#Q:_Why_do_I_see_binary_NULLS_in_some_files_after_recovery_when_I_unplugged_the_power.3F
) i think this is only on writes. i took that into accout, using to
for / and /usr, which are changed only on system upgrades. why do you
think xfs is less proof to to power failures that others?

yeah, it's much better to replace sd once in year for example but have +30% r/w speed during year.
>> - problem with bootloaders
>if you load kernel from different partition then I don't see any problem
with brtfs rootfs.
yeah, I used ext2 for /boot -> uboot is happy.
i even used GPT for fun, so finally my partitions numbered 1,2,3,4,... without 'extendeds'
so far, i didn't notice some significant difference except it only fsck /boot for a long time.
