Can, I don't believe there is such a utility, nor would it be particularly useful in serious environments. Here is why: 1. In-place file system conversion is complex, extremely time consuming, hard on your drive and error prone. Just think about the algorithms required. What would happen in

Sounds like a great idea, but didn't they hire the filesystem architect from BeOS a few years ago to re-design the native MacOS X filesystem? I believe the idea was to clone the database-centric BeFS functions. I believe this functionality is on the plate sometime in the future with Reiser4 and

We got pretty good tools to restore from a hd with bad blocks. dd it, loop it, fsck it. Heh, heh. That won't help you if a circuit board, spindle, read head or other mechanism fails. Then you better hope the data wasn't *that* valuable or you know good platter recovery shop. Backups are

Hi, I'm installing a new RD server and I'd like to eventually run Reiser4 on it, but I'd like to wait until I test it some more before I deploy it on the entire machine. Here is what I'd like to do: 1. Install Reiser3 (perhaps with some of the anti-fragmentation patches). 2. Since I'll be

Just thought this might be interesting to some of you. The database-like FS for Longhorn has just been delayed until the end of the decade. That's great. It means that Microsoft's attempt to copy the BeOS filesystem is not meeting with much success. Which leads to my follow on... I think I
