This is the implementation of the SystemV/Coherent filesystem for Linux.
|
||
|
It implements all of
|
||
|
- Xenix FS,
|
||
|
- SystemV/386 FS,
|
||
|
- Coherent FS.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is version beta 4.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To install:
|
||
|
* Answer the 'System V and Coherent filesystem support' question with 'y'
|
||
|
when configuring the kernel.
|
||
|
* To mount a disk or a partition, use
|
||
|
mount [-r] -t sysv device mountpoint
|
||
|
The file system type names
|
||
|
-t sysv
|
||
|
-t xenix
|
||
|
-t coherent
|
||
|
may be used interchangeably, but the last two will eventually disappear.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Bugs in the present implementation:
|
||
|
- Coherent FS:
|
||
|
- The "free list interleave" n:m is currently ignored.
|
||
|
- Only file systems with no filesystem name and no pack name are recognized.
|
||
|
(See Coherent "man mkfs" for a description of these features.)
|
||
|
- SystemV Release 2 FS:
|
||
|
The superblock is only searched in the blocks 9, 15, 18, which
|
||
|
corresponds to the beginning of track 1 on floppy disks. No support
|
||
|
for this FS on hard disk yet.
