I need to make few changes in the affs file-system in the linux kernel but and I would like to test them. But unfortunately, I was not able to find any working way of formatting my dist to affs.http://www.xs4all.nl/~zippel/affstools-0.1a.tar.gz contains an mkaffs tool. Hope this helps...Hi, thanks, I tried it and it worked neither for files nor for block device nodes, I do not know why. But I've found a different mkfs.affsStrange. I did try it yesterday (without mounting the result, though). Did you pass a volume name as second parameter?
Actually not, the --help output looks like this: $ ./mkaffs --help Usage: mkaffs [OPTION...] devicefile name and I thought that "devicefile name" means "/dev/vda", I did not figure out that "name" is another argument. I decided that it is a piece of old and non-working code and did not try to look at the source code, but I probably should have to. Sorry for the noise. -- Best Regards, Artem Bityutskiy
