This is the implementation of the SystemV/Coherent filesystem for Linux. It implements all of - Xenix FS, - SystemV/386 FS, - Coherent FS. This is version beta 4. To install: * Answer the 'System V and Coherent filesystem support' question with 'y' when configuring the kernel. * To mount a disk or a partition, use mount [-r] -t sysv device mountpoint The file system type names -t sysv -t xenix -t coherent may be used interchangeably, but the last two will eventually disappear. Bugs in the present implementation: - Coherent FS: - The "free list interleave" n:m is currently ignored. - Only file systems with no filesystem name and no pack name are recognized. (See Coherent "man mkfs" for a description of these features.) - SystemV Release 2 FS: The superblock is only searched in the blocks 9, 15, 18, which corresponds to the beginning of track 1 on floppy disks. No support for this FS on hard disk yet. Please report any bugs and suggestions to Bruno Haible <haible@ma2s2.mathematik.uni-karlsruhde.de> or Pascal Haible <haible@izfm.uni-stuttgart.de> .
