Re: [Xen-devel] -xen config...

Is there any reason that ext2 is set as 'y' while ext3 is set as 'm'? It seems to me that they (and the other 'common' filesystems) should be the same...

I agree this is pretty odd. The -xen config was based on one for a
distro kernel, so I think it's standard practice.

Bootstrapping issue: suse did it that way because the initrd loading driver and filesystem modules used to be ext2-formated ramdisk. These days initramfs is used instead, probably suse comes with ext2 being modular soon ;)

cheers,
