You may want to download the following graphical overview of the UFS/FFS filesystem that was made by Poul-Henning Kamp earlier this year, it's very useful: http://phk.freebsd.dk/misc/ufs.pdf If you want to print it out you'll need 18 sheets of paper. You may also want to use something like doxygen (devel/doxygen in the ports tree) to generate source code graphs and make browsing through source code easier. Another resource that you may find helpful is Robert Watson's FXR site: http://fxr.watson.org ALeine ___________________________________________________________________ WebMail FREE http://mail.austrosearch.net
