Hello,

I'm making my firsts steps with vfs and filesystem playground.

I created a very simple fs, for wich i have a rude mkfs and its
fill_super function on kernel side. fill_super finish ok, and loadas
the super block for my filesystem, but when i make mount -t testfs
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/tfs i got the following message: "mount: not a
directory"

And here comes my question: what vfs is supposed to do since it loads
sb and tries to list dir content? and what functions vfs needs at
least to mount my fs? ( just load it, and display an empty dir with
ls, not creating files etc... )


thanks!
