Robert, Please forgive me not answering your question, but just responding to an issue you've raised. > From what I've read, md is a better way of going than mfs. I have seen several references to md being preferred to mfs but have been unable to find any detailed comparison or evaluation. To what reference were you referring? I've also seen it suggested that mfs is to go away, leaving only md. For happy mfs users like myself who enjoy the convenience of a simple flexible fstab entry sufficing for memory backed non-persistent filesystems, that is of some concern. Perhaps someone on -hackers could provide a good pointer or give details. -Andrew- -- ______________________________________________________________________ | -Andrew J.
