Hello all,

I've created an ext2 (linux) virtual filesystem using the ext2fsx package under Mac OS X:

dd if=/dev/zero of=foo.img bs=1024 count=100000
dir --si foo.img
mkfs.ext2 foo.img
tune2fs -L "KnoppixRemaster" foo.img
open foo.img
ls -la /Volumes/KnoppixRemaster/

For a full transcript of the above, visit:

Having a virtual ext2 filesystem means you don't have to repartition your existing drive nor do you have to plug in an additional drive in order to use an ext2 filesystem.

BTW, yes, I am experimenting with remastering Knoppix under OS X.

Regards,
- Robert
