If last month's Infrastrucuture issue was too "big" for you then try on this month's Embedded issue. Find out how to use Player for programming mobile robots, build a humidity controller for your root cellar, find out how to reduce the boot time of your embedded system, and if you're new to embedded systems find out the basics that go into one. You can also read about the Beagle Board, the Mesh Potato and a spate of other interestingly named items. And along with our regular columns don't miss our new monthly column: Economy Size Geek.
What about JFS or Ext4?
On October 5th, 2009 Gary says:
The discussion is interesting, but why leave out JFS. Backblaze is using it for their Debian-based online backup. Redhat doesn't support it, but Debian, Ubuntu and CentOS do. And Ext4 is about to become the default filesystem for Ubuntu. Can you comment on those file systems? Maybe you've been over all this before.
