I'm embarking on some ufs growing code, and need a test bed other than my harddisk :) Is there a way of allocating a memory filesystem, (or file system on a disk file), that's got empty space at the end? I know that I can use mount_mfs to construct a memory fs, but IIRC if can't allocate more memory on the end that isn't part of the file system. Has anyone any tips? (I'm sure there's a way of doing it with the vn driver, Matt?)
