522135169SAlexey Dobriyan	  FreeVxFS is a file system driver that support the VERITAS VxFS(TM)
622135169SAlexey Dobriyan	  file system format.  VERITAS VxFS(TM) is the standard file system
722135169SAlexey Dobriyan	  of SCO UnixWare (and possibly others) and optionally available
81cce1701SKrzysztof Błaszkowski	  for Sunsoft Solaris, HP-UX and many other operating systems. However
91cce1701SKrzysztof Błaszkowski	  these particular OS implementations of vxfs may differ in on-disk
101cce1701SKrzysztof Błaszkowski	  data endianess and/or superblock offset. The vxfs module has been
111cce1701SKrzysztof Błaszkowski	  tested with SCO UnixWare and HP-UX B.10.20 (pa-risc 1.1 arch.)
12*bf1bb4b4SKrzysztof Błaszkowski	  Currently only readonly access is supported and VxFX versions
13*bf1bb4b4SKrzysztof Błaszkowski	  2, 3 and 4. Tests were performed with HP-UX VxFS version 3.

1522135169SAlexey Dobriyan	  NOTE: the file system type as used by mount(1), mount(2) and
1622135169SAlexey Dobriyan	  fstab(5) is 'vxfs' as it describes the file system format, not
1722135169SAlexey Dobriyan	  the actual driver.

191cce1701SKrzysztof Błaszkowski	  There is a userspace utility for HP-UX logical volumes which makes
201cce1701SKrzysztof Błaszkowski	  creating HP-UX logical volumes easy from HP-UX disk block device file
211cce1701SKrzysztof Błaszkowski	  or regular file with image of the disk. See:

2422135169SAlexey Dobriyan	  To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be
2522135169SAlexey Dobriyan	  called freevxfs.  If unsure, say N.
