I don't The transparent compression patch is: http://linux-patches.rock-projects.com/v2.2-f/e2compr.html The large filesystem patch is: http://linux-patches.rock-projects.com/v2.2-f/lfs-32bit.html The latter is also usually rolled into the -ac patches to the Linux kernel. I don't know how well tested they are, but I imagine for ext2 on ia32, they're probably pretty heavily tested. That doesn't mean they are highly supported patches. ;-) -- -Geoff Hutchison Williams Students Online http://wso.williams.edu/ ------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from the htdig mailing list, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the single word unsubscribe in the SUBJECT of the message.
