Re: SVR4 emulation
UFS has historically not been able to handle filesystems larger then 1TB
due to internal arithmatic overflows. Weird things would happen. I
don't know if FreeBSD fixed those issues ... we brought in most of the
FreeBSD 64 bit fixes for UFS, but not the 64 bit block numbers yet.
My personal feeling is that if we want 64 bit block support we need to
make a repository copy of the UFS code and call it something else,
like 'ufs64' or something (ufs2 ?), rather then trying to integrate the
support into the existing UFS filesystem.
