Hallo,
nowaday I have read in the german fedora forum, that grub is not able
to handle
ext4 file systems.
Just for the record; there is an ext4 patch for grub available; grub
certainly *could* support ext4, and likely will.
In opposite grub2 should be able to support ext4.
Because Fedora/Red Hat is a leader of development of the ext4 file
system, I want to
ask about the plan for ext4 on F11 or F12.
ext4 has been in since F9; it is gaining steam and will likely have very
strong support in F11.
Because, I'm assume, that you don't want to patch grub for
ext4,
Why assume that? :) Which version of grub we use, and whether we
support ext4 for /boot, reallly don't have to be related questions, I think.
-Eric
you
have to migrate
to grub2 if you want to support ext4 on /boot.
