Mostly true...there is an ext2-IFS for OS/2 but it cannot handle the additions made to ext2 since kernel 2.2 or so... so you'd have to use the appropriate ext2 version (think it was 1.40) in order to share it with OS/2. >To format a JFS >partition on Linux that is to be shared with OS/2, you must give >jfs_mkfs the -O (capital o) flag. I can't remember what the ext2-IFS did to work around the problem of Linux being case-sensitive and OS/2 not... What would happen when using a case-sensitive JFS with OS/2 ? (or is such access denied by the IFS?) cu, Stefan _______________________________________________ Jfs-discussion mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www-124.ibm.com/developerworks/oss/mailman/listinfo/jfs-discussion
