Hi,
I can't understand that you talk only about linux filesystems as an
alternative. There are more options like i.e. HFS, HFS+ and FFS. And HFS
/HFS+ are under GPL so we can use it without repressions.
And I think it is not more difficult to write HFS or FFS in the kernel
of FreeDOS than ReiserFS or XFS or all the other candidates.
There is no way around this, unless someone will write a disclaimer, "Before
you install FreeDos, do you want to enable Fat32 Patented Features"? We are
facing the same issue with Ros. When I use FreeDos, I use the basic 8.3
file system, so I don't see that as a major problem. The point here is the
patent is about LFN, basic 8.3 is not effected.
Thanks,
James
