My only thought is its going to have to support all of them. Hey, why not make our own (someone would suggest it anyway).
It would need to be something fast and reliable, Error checking? Indexing? etc etc |

Sun's zfs is open source, and quite possibly the single most advanced FS around. Extremely fast too IIRC. It'll probably be in the Linux kernel shortly, if not already.

Personally I use ReiserFS, but Ext3 is probably the best choice as it's teh most commonly used.

ZFS if it's in the Kernel by then, or else Ext3.
And to bring up the proprietary standards discussion again, what's with NTFS drivers? In case someone wants to plug his external drive into my computer? The user should be able to install that manually, probably. I don't know if you can turn journalling off in Ext3. Why would i do that? |

I was thinking that in the near future we will be using Ram-Drives and this will require a new file system anyways, since file access methodology will be completely different to standard rotating magnetic drives. So we should just offer to support the basic filesystems with whatever Linux or BSD distro we choose to use.

The system shouldn't be too exotic... I'd say EXT3 and failing that, perhaps XFS.
