I think this is the 2nd time you've asked something that is covered in the Handbook. Possibly you haven't gotten to the section yet (it's under Chapter 3): http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/disk-organization.html Scroll down to "Benefit of a single file system" and read from there. P.S. -- Just because learning BSD is more difficult doesn't mean BSD is better (yes, you read that right). Every operating system has its pros and cons. Please keep that in mind. -- | Jeremy Chadwick j...@parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
