6*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  FreeVxFS is a file system driver that support the VERITAS VxFS(TM)
7*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  file system format.  VERITAS VxFS(TM) is the standard file system
8*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  of SCO UnixWare (and possibly others) and optionally available
9*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  for Sunsoft Solaris, HP-UX and many other operating systems. However
10*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  these particular OS implementations of vxfs may differ in on-disk
11*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  data endianess and/or superblock offset. The vxfs module has been
12*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  tested with SCO UnixWare and HP-UX B.10.20 (pa-risc 1.1 arch.)
13*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  Currently only readonly access is supported and VxFX versions
14*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  2, 3 and 4. Tests were performed with HP-UX VxFS version 3.

16*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  NOTE: the file system type as used by mount(1), mount(2) and
17*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  fstab(5) is 'vxfs' as it describes the file system format, not
18*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  the actual driver.

20*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  There is a userspace utility for HP-UX logical volumes which makes
21*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  creating HP-UX logical volumes easy from HP-UX disk block device file
22*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  or regular file with image of the disk. See:

25*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be
26*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  called freevxfs.  If unsure, say N.
