The snapshot is available here: http://people.freebsd.org/~rodrigc/xfs/ NOTES: - works only with latest FreeBSD-CURRENT and FreeBSD-6 kernels - read-only access to XFS partitions only - highly experimental and not finished yet, this is a work in progress - do not use for production work NEW THINGS: - several kernel panics fixed - preliminary support for reading extended attributes - xfsprogs in ports ( sysutils/xfsprogs ), needed for mkfs.xfs The XFS for FreeBSD project is porting the SGI XFS filesystem to FreeBSD, based on publically available GPL'd sources of SGI's XFS for Linux. The XFS for FreeBSD project is not affiliated with SGI, and SGI should not be contacted with bug reports regarding XFS for FreeBSD. Many thanks to Russell Cattelan and Alexander Kabaev for their work on this project. We would appreciate your feedback and bug reports. -- Craig Rodrigues rodrigc@crodrigues.org
