Okay. I see an example of that mentioned in your mail in http://lists.debian.org/debian-mips/2002/debian-mips-200204/msg00056.html . That seems to match with an EFS volume header. So making a tool that writes the 8k volume header is easy. If I understand properly, that points to a filename on the EFS filesystem that follows it. What open source tools do we have to create such an EFS filesystem? > If you plan to work on this - Feel free to come around in > Oldenburg this weekend - We will have a Kernel Hacker meeting > in the University Oldenburg.
