Hello!
For a project where we plan to use a small disk we would like to use a
compressed filesystem. Either I am blind or I cannot find the appropriate
information ;)
There once was a patch against the 2.2.* kernel series for a compressed ext2
filesystem. Development on this stopped at 2.3.9 but latest technology
requires the new kernels in some cases.
So if there is any information available on that issue I would be glad to
share it ;)
Thanks!
