How complicated would it be to have a simple XFS reading program?
Would this be an involved process? or something trivial?
The reason I am asking is because of programs like grub and milo,
bootloaders
that actually read the filesystem to find the kernel (instead of
building a block map like lilo), and they would need updating before XFS
could take over as the primary filesystem for linux. ( A big goal, but
if the current XFS is of pre-beta quality, I can't wait for the actual
release )
Thanks,
Rob
(Flames may be sent directly, I like having one really good mailing list
out there)
