[Bug 1261175] Re: [wishlist] F2FS missing in Ubiquity "Use as" partition option

[Daniel Swarbrick]

Any such d-i component is going to have to warn that the partition on
which /boot resides cannot be f2fs, since grub does not support booting
from f2fs yet.

I'd certainly be interested in seeing f2fs get more support. Since
Samsung make most of the world's flash memory, they're probably in a
good position to determine how filesystems should interact with that
flash memory.
