I have not read you patch, and as such have no opinion on if it should go into the tree or not, but I have some general comments to make on this overall subject. I think we need somebody to reconsider how we configure our filesystems in the future, in order to avoid a confusion of config files whose interrelationship users will have no chance of figuring out. We have CCD, GBDE, MD and in the future likely other technologies for configuring the underlying devices, we have FSCK, UFS and NFS and other filesystems to mount. Somebody must be able to come up with some creative stuff here... ? -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 phk_at_FreeBSD.ORG | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.Received on Thu Jun 19 2003 - 03:37:25 UTC
