Hi!

In some threads I one had read that ext3 was the recommended filesystem to use for the rootfs.
Does this still apply with current UBoot versions?
Am I safe to use ext4 in the long instead?

Thank you!
:)

There may be some works done to improve EXT4 since the post you read. Make sure the post you read is not an old post.

Ext4 is fine, and it is supported by the current u-boot.
