System tips

Бродя по интернетам увидал полезняшку. Солидную, жирную такую. Набор советов и рецептов по обслуживанию Linux-овых ОС.

В мемориз.

Here, I describe basic tips to configure and manage systems, mostly from the console.

Ext3 filesystem is the default filesystem for the Linux system and strongly recommended to use it unless you have some specific reasons not to. After Linux kernel 2.6.30 (Debian squeeze), ext4 filesystem is available and expected to be the default filesystem for the Linux system. btrfs filesystem is expected to be the next default filesystem after ext4 filesystem for the Linux system.

[Warning] Warning

You might face some limitations with ext4 since it is new. For example, you must have Linux kernel 2.6.30 or later if you wish to resize an ext4 partition.

[Tip] Tip

Use "shutdown -F -r now" to force to run the fsck(8) command safely on all filesystems including root filesystem on reboot. See the shutdown(8) manpage for more.
