Does anyone know when precisely xiafs was removed from the kernel? By comparing these two pages: [1] [2] we can see that it was somewhere along the 2.1/2.2 release timeperiod (around 1996 IIRC). Richard W.M. Jones 11:18, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

According to this, it was removed in 2.1.21. H e nrik 14:50, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

how to understand that?

Initially, Xiafs was more powerful and more stable than Ext2 ... ... Xiafs is less powerful and offers less functionality than Ext2...

what is this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.252.227.53 (talk) 13:20, 17 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What it means is that, at first the xiafs implementation was better, but the ext2 implementation kept getting improved over time and development of the xiafs implementation just stalled. 98.164.211.128 (talk) 18:59, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
