It depends what area or field you'd like to get into wrt filesystems, David. The list Frank supplied is more towards stackable f/s. There are other papers if you're interested in distributed/network file systems (e.g., nfs, coda), high performance file systems (xfs, reiserfs), automounter file systems, (amd, automounter/autofs, hlfsd, Blaze's CFS), extent-like file systems, journaling file systems, numerous special purpose file systems, and even more numerous tweaks to existing file systems. I have an extensive library of f/s papers I've collected over the past decade, and I probably give you pointers to many. > Later, > FM > > -- > Frank W.
