 F2FS was designed on a basis of a log-structured file system approach, which it adapted to newer forms of storage. Jaegeuk Kim, the principal F2FS author, has stated that it remedies some known issues of the older log-structured file systems, such as the snowball effect of wandering trees and high cleaning overhead. In addition, since a NAND-based storage device shows different characteristics according to its internal geometry or flash memory management scheme (such as the Flash Translation Layer or FTL), it supports various parameters not only for configuring on-disk layout, but also for selecting allocation and cleaning algorithms. F2FS was designed on a basis of a log-structured file system approach, which it adapted to newer forms of storage.

 +[[https://​www.openmandriva.org/​|OpenMandriva]]                | F2FS has been fully supported since Lx 3 release. ​                         | 
 +[[https://​wiki.archlinux.org/​index.php/​F2FS|Archlinux]]       | GRUB doesn'​t support F2FS, so /boot should be other filesystem. ​           | 
 +[[https://​ubuntuforums.org/​showthread.php?​t=2326934|Ubuntu]]  | GRUB and installer don't support F2FS, so need to install /root manually. ​ |
