Journaling?
- So what's this journaling thing people keep talking about?
- It's a simple principle:
- keep a log of all the things you are doing to the filesystem
- once you have done a whole set of consistent updates, record a "commit" record in the log
- only copy the data to disk once it is committed
- on reboot, you can discover the consistent updates from the log.
