From Gentoo Linux Wiki
This article is still a Stub. You can help Gentoo-Wiki by expanding it.
There are a lot of usable filesystems in Linux and Gentoo, so we will see on which filesystems Gentoo can be installed and what is the benefit of using other filesystems than the ones listed inside the Gentoo Handbook.
That howto was made for a linux-2.6.15-gentoo-r1 kenrel (so in previous kernels, some rw support can lack).
| Filesystem | read-write linux kernel support | posix permissions | case sensitive | acl | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HFS | rw | |||||
| HFS+ | rw | |||||
features:
- some of you probaly heard of mac-os search function or about storage+ from microsoft
why not having a similar feature in gentoo http://wiki.linux-ntfs.org/doku.php?id=man:ntfscp#data_streams here with the ntfs userspace uttilities we can have a support of stream inside ntfs
