AFAIK, reiserfs is going to be in the 2.3.x series. I'm not trying to pit the two OS against each other, I just really happen to like reiserfs, and I want to see it in FreeBSD. From the homepage: "I personally favor performing a balance of commercial and public works in my life. I have no axe to grind against software that is charged for, and no regrets at making reiserfs freely available to Linux users. This project is GPL'd, but I sell exceptions to the GPL to commercial OS vendors and file server vendors. It is not usable to them without such exceptions, and many of them are wise enough to understand that: " FreeBSD isn't a commercial OS, and I bet Hans would be completely OK with porting it, or giving assistance to anyone who was interested in porting. The URL for reiserfs, in case anyone is interested, is: http://idiom.com/~beverly/reiserfs.html --- tani hosokawa river styx internet On 21 May 1999, Christian Weisgerber wrote: > <unknown@riverstyx.net> wrote: > > > on the topic of filesystems, is reiserfs coming to freebsd? > > Is it coming to Linux? > > The Linux people have talked for *years* now about an extended ext2fs, > ext3fs, reiserfs, etc. being available real soon now, but nothing has > happened yet. > > -- > Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de > 100+ SF Book Reviews: <URL:http://home.pages.de/~naddy/reviews/>; > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
