I'm a bit reluctant to add such tasks, given that--afaIct--there so far isn't an agreement between the Hurd maintainers about how to support file systems that are larger than the contiguous addressable memory space (which is around 2 GiB). Comments from the maintainers? Also, the currently proposed changes to address that problem (by Ognyan Kulev) for the ext2fs translator only work for file systems with a block size of 4096 Bytes. > I don't know it current iso9660 is complete WRT specifications.
