hello,
    i am fairly new to linux, i need it's fast number crunching powers
for my research... and i have only recently begun to have a look at the
kernel (i believe every workman should know his tools)..... but i have
noticed that supermount is not a standard part of the project, is there
any reason why this is? is it due to man power? i would have been less
shocked by the absense of other features in the kernel such as sound and
radio support, supermount seems to me to be essential in any operating
system.....
    i apologise if this is a very silly question or if i have posted
this question in the wrong place, but please excuse me, im new to this
whole world.

and keep up the good work, i wish i knew more about the whole thing so i
could contribute something.

Sam, Ireland

Supermount has been integrated into the Mandrake 8 kernel (2.4);
I have been unable to locate the standalone patch for this, however.

More feature should be added into main kernel(Was: supermount)

[Steve Kieu]

Just my humble opinion, please dont laugh if I am
wrong, I think:

Supermount
JFS 

I use the patch from IBM ; now running JFS, and notice
a bit improved performance than Reiserfs, it is good
file system, (they release stable (may be?) release
already). But It is hard, they only give the patch for
the main version, say 2.4.x x< 5 and 2.4.5; I patch to
2.4.5 then apply the ac22 series, it spits errors,
then I had to patch manually but may be I made a
mistake somewhere, when compile it gave me errors, 
Okay some one may tell me to use FOLK, but I tried
last time, and failled to compile, ( I fogot the error
message sorry, ) so now I have to use 2.4.4 with JFS.

The same for supermount, the patch is only for 2.4.0,
but this time I am ok to manually patch it.
