Did you ever test the compressed filesystem (cloop) for read / write
support, or is it read-only?

Well, I wouldn't spoil all the fun for you, would I? I've left a bit of testing to do for you. ;)) : :-) : If it doesn't work, we'll probably need a kind of cloop-utils package. I'll try to create that rpm tomorrow if it is needed.
Here's a spec file: http://cc22149-a.groni1.gr.home.nl/~leen/cloop/cloop-utils.spec Get this tarball: http://developer.linuxtag.net/knoppix/sources/cloop_2.01-5.tar.gz
Mmm, but I'm using the standard suse kernel, so I'm waiting till 9.2 for experimenting with that :-)
Not necessary. That spec file is gone, but I made some packages you might be interested in:
http://cc22149-a.groni1.gr.home.nl/~leen/cloop/
They run on 9.1 with any 2.6 kernel. I tried them with kernel-default-2.6.5-7.108. So far it works.
Install both, goto /usr/src/kernel-modules/cloop, and follow the instructions in the INSTALL file. man compressedloop tells how to use it. For the insmod, use the full path to cloop.ko (e.g. /lib/modules/2.6.5-7.108-default/extra/cloop.ko).
Cheers,
