Hi,
Is there or is anyone working on an Inherited file sustem for Linux
(2.6.x kernels) ?
I have seen very old postings on this issue but nothing recent.
If not is there any good documentation on how to implement a kernel
filesystem ?
My application is a number of diskless nodes that I would like to share
a basic file system, but allowing each node to have differing files
for configuration differences etc. So any writes made to the
Inherited file system would result in a file copy from the underlying file
system and a write to the newly copied file.
Cheers
Terry
