"IBM hates BSD" might be > a bit too strong, though. And you'd want to poke IBM first. I'm included to agree about poking and prodding them a bit first. I don't think that IBM would deliberately set out to produce a product that is deliberately designed to destroy an OS other than one they officially support if it could possibly hurt the overall market for their product. I could be wrong on this though as they have done some pretty backwards things in the past!!! > > Is there a master list of file system types anywhere? > > I seem to recall having seen a list on an IBM site somewhere, but if not, > then you will find a number of such lying about the net. A good list for DOS style partitions can be found in FreeFDISK (see the FreeDOS page). FreeFDISK comes with a reasonably complete .INI file that contains details about a great many DOS partition types. /BGM To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-fs" in the body of the message
