There has been recent work to port several of the newer Linux file systems to FreeBSD, including: - Pretty old work to get the basic JFS userland tools working (status unknown, likely very stale due to the passage of time). - Pretty recent work to get read-only reiserfs working (committed and in the CVS repository). - Pretty recent work to get read-only XFS working (external repository, but publicly available). Also potentially of interesting: - Increasingly dated work to port the pre-journalled version of HFS+ to FreeBSD, which works well subject to the datedness and pre-journalledness of the work. There's also on-going work on a journalled version of UFS. I'm sure the authors of any of these would be interested in someone lending a hand -- I know there have been specific appeals for interest from the XFS crowd in the last month, along with test patches, etc, for example. You might want to post to freebsd-fs looking for details on the various projects. Robert N M Watson
