Mostly interested in cramfs, due to it's compression. Could anybody help me work this out or point to the right place for more info? Thanks a lot, Art. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
