I apologize in advance if this has been extensively discussed, but I'm
curious about facts/opinions regarding the use of file-backed loop where
the file lives inside an ext3 filesystem. For example, I setup
/dev/loop3 to point to /home/rigsby/bigsecrets.dat and /home is an ext3
file system.
Are there any concerns, advantages, or disadvantages to having the
source file for a file-backed loop in an ext3 filesystem versus ext2?
Thanks,
