Hi!
Just out of curiosity, is there any hidden meaning of
#define DISKMAGIC ((u_int32_t)0x82564557) /* The disk magic number */
Or is it just a random number?

Hi !
Am currently discussing FreeBSD vs. OpenBSD in private e-mail.
What make OpenBSD so "secure" ? Or can this kind of security be
reproduced with FreeBSD ports ? I think of tools like:

I recently made a 15GB filesystem and ended up with almost 500
cylinder groups. That is unlikely to be optimal. I talked to Kirk
about the right parameters for UFS on modern disks some years back,
and he said that no more than maybe a hundred cylinder groups made
any sense.

Hi Jeroen,
I don't know about that. I'd hate for anyone to think that this
"improves security".
I see it as a convenience option, and wanted feedback on any negative

Hi All,
1. Is this possible to produce an LKM device driver that would export
functions to another LKM driver?
2. If the 1. is possible, will it be possible to load the "another LKM
driver" without loading the "exporting" driver?
Which references would you suggest me to look into? Maybe some kno

Is there any reason to have getopt.c replicated in so many different
programs:
cvs, grep, gzip, patch, ptx, sort, tar
and maybe a few others that I missed...
