Hello,
I originally posted this message to -questions mailing list, but it wasn't
probably the right place :-( So, if you read it few days ago, please silently
ignore ;-)
I use FreeBSD on my home PC and one server. I must say, that I am *very*
satisfied with it.
a) I am maintainer/author of Filesystems-HOWTO. It's a document describing
dozens of filesystems and accessing them from various OSes. I think it would
be very useful to have this HOWTO in FreeBSD. What do you think? For more
information see http://www.penguin.cz/~mhi/fs/. Should I make a port for you?
b) I'd like to write in my HOWTO also about filesystems in FreeBSD. Can you
help me? Any documents, links and other information are *very* welcome. I'd
like to ask also BSD FFS developers.
c) Few months ago I wrote BFS (UnixWare boot filesystem) Linux kernel
implementation. Because <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> implemented better (read-write)
version of it, my version is obsolete. If you want to port this code to
FreeBSD, I can re-release it under BSD license. There is small problem - I've
never developed anything to FreeBSD kernel. But I have kernel-level
development experience.
d) I installed FreeBSD on extended partition using GRUB bootmanager (see GNU
homepage). Are you interested? [Some people asked me to write step-by-step
howto. But it is not easy, so I'd like to make small changes to sysinstall to
accept also extended FreeBSD partitions].
Thanks,
Martin.
PS: Please CC all replies also to me, because I have no time to read
carefully hackers mailing list.
