Good Morning!
I'm using ODROID-xu4 and did Download your image. I wonder if the image has support for XFS Filesystem?
Because I would like to install a Webserber.
Grateful!

Because I would like to install a Webserber.

 

Please use these 3 short words to get the idea why most if not all ARM distros save their users from using XFS: xfs arm bug

 

Please also note that there are no special requirements regarding filesystems for webservers. Just use ext4 and you will be fine.

 

We used XFS a few years ago at customers with storage exceeding 16TB (since neither btrfs nor ZFS on Linux was ready and ext4 tools weren't able to deal with that amount of storage back then) but today I would use ZFS instead.

The problem is that I have a hard drive already formatted in XFS and would not want to lose the data ...

If you call this a problem you seem to have a real problem: No backup. Try to fix this first and then be happy with ext4.
