Hi Adrian,

I apologize, that message was sent 10 years ago and I do not remember details
any longer.

What I do remember is that I was doing some cross-filesystem changes and
struggled to test AFFS. At that time it felt that AFFS was abandoned. But I
remember I managed to create an AFFS partition, mount it in Linux, and test my
changes.

Thanks,
Artem.
