Do you know any way to see what sort of file system the system is running. fdisk just shows Linux, but I want to make sure to see if it is EXT3, XFS, etc...

Thanks

# cat /etc/fstab

will tell you what you want to know.

actually, the output of the "mount" command is probably more interesting

I got it, I just needed to make sure it was an XFS file system and it was. Thanks
