I have a 2 GB flash drive that I want to repartition with a 1 GB FAT partition and a 1 GB ext partition. What I am wondering is whether I should go with ext2, ext3, or ext4. If this had been a regular hard drive, I would go with ext4, but since this is a 1 GB flash drive partition, should I consider a filesystem without journaling, or should I got with ext3 or ext4?

I decided to go with ext2 since I probably wouldn't need the journaling feature.
