If only by you:(. I'd suggest you make your 5.x partition UFS1 and be satisfied with that - that's pretty much all you can do. > Or are we following "Windows way of life" here ? If 5.x couldn't understand 4.x, that would be a bad thing. But forcing 5.x to be absolutely compatible with 4.x is another bad thing. If you were forced to stay that compatible all the time, you wouldn't be able to do major architectural changes. If everyone thought the same way, an Athlon or a P4 would be a 80286, only MUCH faster (which it is for most olden DOS or Windows/16 programs, so your definition of `Windows way of life' is definitely contrary to mine). You don't complain 4.x can't run 5.x binaries, do you?:) -- DoubleF If I traveled to the end of the rainbow As Dame Fortune did intend, Murphy would be there to tell me The pot's at the other end. -- Bert Whitney --Signature=_Wed__21_Jan_2004_19_26_53_+0300_LJq_MjYJjM==NxAq Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFADqhYwo7hT/9lVdwRAsY5AJ9gHyf/Kaz4oXO/PveefsJz91/FSwCggMsw KEO8OSxJFlwg2XEA1Lg8gvk= =0ouL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Signature=_Wed__21_Jan_2004_19_26_53_+0300_LJq_MjYJjM==NxAq--
