gutemine, would you be a little more specific? I appreciate your comments highly. PLi team, why not to add the file system information in the info page: MENU->Information->About
As we know System File System can be either jffs2 or UBIFS. Ubifs the largest advantages is that the device is able to launch 2 times faster. All the UBIFS advantages and differences you can read from the wiki:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/UBIFS
My box uses UBI, I do not know whether any of these use jffs2?

The df command reports the amount of available disk space being used by file systems.
The combination of this command should get, whether it's the jffs2 or UBIFS filesystem.

df will not report anything about the used filesystems, cat /proc/mounts would be better.

 

Which means it gets a little bit boring to correct bad advice ...

 

And the correct sentence would be that Flash Filesystem can be jffs2 or ubifs, system filesystem ca be any bootable Filsystems - my 7080 and 820 use ext4 for example ...

Well, but this info could be in my opinion as well in the page?
Information->About
So can an ordinary user to know what file system is used, that it would be good to know!?
Example:
File System: UBIFS

dFlash V12.6 
or 
enigma2-plugin-extensions-dflash_13.6?
If this is the question, then first make sure which file system your system uses,
jffs2 or UBIFS filesystem.
Telnet to box and using the command
cat /proc/mounts
we can view the status of all mounted file systems.

If your filesystem is UBI, then no point to install dFlash V12.6,
because it owns only the jffs2 tools.
Some of the time my box using UBIFS. 

Thank you guttemine for your useful comments, I have not thought about this before, especially not when I compiled the Guide. (I'm absolutely sure that, during this time my dreambox used jffs2 system, now it uses UBIFS).

Yet one remark, just in case
boot.jffs2
rootfs.ubifs
It means rootfs is currently UBI in my case.
