What filesystem does FreeBSD use for disks (1.44mb and 120 mb). In windows they use ms-dos, but my guess is that we don't use FFS for disks? and how do I format a disk to our filesystem? Why is it what we don't have to fragment our hard-disks all the time like I did in windows? I also heard that the filesystem for hard-disk will be updated in FreeBSD 5.0, can you guide my to some info about this? br socketd To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
