F2FS

From Alpine Linux

From Wikipedia:

F2FS (Flash-Friendly File System) is a flash file system initially developed by Samsung Electronics for the Linux kernel.

The motive for F2FS was to build a file system that, from the start, takes into account the characteristics of NAND flash memory-based storage devices (such as solid-state disks, eMMC, and SD cards), which are widely used in computer systems ranging from mobile devices to servers.

Install

Out of the box AlpineLinux doesnt support making F2FS partitions, that cant be added with:

# apk add f2fs-tools


Formatting a partiton using F2FS

This material needs expanding ...

This section isnt tested (yet), USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

f2fs may need to be manually added to /etc/mkinitfs/mkinitfs.conf

or?

echo f2fs >> /etc/modules
