Not really <...> <...> The new driver, introduced in 2.5.11, has some write code, but it's very limited. The driver can overwrite existing files, but it cannot change the length, add new or delete existing files. Adding write support will take a *long time*. ================================= I'm not sure how "massively used" the write feature is on a file system driver which can only overwrite existing files (without changing the length)." Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to start a flame war -- I think this is a great project -- I use the driver for reading of NTFS volumes, but it's very misleading to claim that this driver has any useful write functions. -d
