These probably wouldn't have any advantage over FFS though. If someone has a wishlist it would be nice to be able to mount the FFS variant's, not only Tru64 UFS, but especifically Solaris. Now that a SPARC64 port is coming it would be really handy. just my $0.02, Pedro. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Check out Yahoo! Shopping and Yahoo!
