I thought my question was very specific: what did RedHat remove from
Anaconda to remove support for other journaling system except ext3
considering RHEL is based on Fedora? You just kinda assume I didn't
do the due deligence to find on a search engine first.
Okay, let me state it again more clearl. I'm looking for a way to
directly support other journaling file systems (not just ext3) in
Anaconda itself. Just wondering if anyone has done it already. If
not, I can do it myself, that's fine.
