Hi, I know I can create a file and mount it like this: dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/somefile bs=1024 count=100000 mke2fs /tmp/somefile mount /tmp/somefile /mnt -o loop but that has a problem it cannot grow. Is there a way to do the same (above) but have it not restricted to a size? Or can I append blocks to the end of the file without distroying it? Jobst -- Sendmail administration is not black magic. There are legitimate technical reasons why it requires the sacrificing of a live chicken. | |0| | Jobst Schmalenbach, jobst@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, General Manager | | |0| Barrett Consulting Group P/L & The Meditation Room P/L |0|0|0| +61 3 9532 7677, POBox 277, Caulfield South, 3162, Australia _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
