The 'dnode' dn_number is equivalent to an inode i_number, with ROOTDNO == ROOTINO, etc, and vfatfs_vget() is currently used in much the same way ffs_vget() is. Of course, it would be easy enough to rename the current vfatfs_vget(), make it static, and just return EOPNOTSUPP. Thanks. -- Robert Nordier * --- inetpkt v1.0
