Considering that pendrives use flash, the jffs system which is specifically designed for flashrom should be even better for the robustness and reliability metrics. One other feature of jffs is wear levelling. But pendirves have a micon which is supposed to do that. thanks jtd for that info thanks a million.now my questions is that if I use ext2 and go with extlinux boot loader how will be the idea? and if I use reiserfs which boot loader must Iuse? and you mentioned jfs how will that be on my 256 or 512 mb pen drive? I don't have a floppy disk drive on my pc. if I have to install grub how will I do it? Krishnakant.
