Right, but does it automount the card with btrfs? And: which userid/groupid is needed to get data on it from the phone's user view?

I'm planning this experiment when i get my jolla
But fs should not matter, except if it is some closed source type like zfs or exfat.

Better (of course) would be it can find a LUKS layer (open it on startup after pin entry) and find the btrfs partition in it and automount

I have neverever heard of such a thing before! Is that even possible? Unspeakable! how....
Nokia N9 has no file manager pre-installed...

How good is BTRFS for a flash memory (sd card)? Any filesystem with excessive writing and journaling is going to be more taxing for flash which has a limited lifetime and amount of writings until it burns out. It of course might not matter at all, if that sdcard isn't used heavily.

ZFS is open, except the Oracle's additions. See http://www.open-zfs.org/wiki/Main_Page

Because the Android one is a stupid paradigm. Linux already contains a layer that is designed for handling bazillions of processes that are doing nothing, and it will transparently swap them out when there is memory pressure. As long as there is swap, which for some reason Android seems not to have.

The fact that some idiots decided to implement a new layer on top of this one that for some weird reason forces developers to manually implement checkpointing (aka saving and restoring state) into each and every small application is something I cannot understand. Possibly it has more to do with Android's PalmOS roots than anything else.

The GUI part could be killed in between when a user leaves it (the terminal window) to the background.
Great, so apart from the already existing separation between the terminal process and the bash process (whose only relation is that one is the controller of the other's tty), I have to make up an extra third process that was previously not needed just to fit into this weird reinvention of the wheel. And invent a new IPC paradigm (in Java nonetheless) to communicate the terminal controller with this new third process.

I mentioned yesterday that when I set an alarm, the alarm appeared to be set an hour later, so when I set my alarm for 06:43, it showed as set at 07:43.

I checked the time zones etc and then set an alarm for 05:43, which showed up as an alarm at 06:43, so I was happy

Until the inevitable happened, and the alarm which showed it was set for 06:43 went off at 05:43 :-(
