looking at this, it looks like someone is trying to "freeware" something
similar to Novell's NDS8.
good idea but it also needs to be able to add drives to existing paths
without moving data
ie
current drive has /var/develop as a directory that's getting full
just add another drive and "ADD a path statement in some form" so that both
the existing directory is used PLUS the new drive as /var/develop
aves moving and linking, especially when you only want the extra space
during a development phase.
hm.... wishfull thinking?????????

What's the difference between reiserfs and ext3?
Both are jounalling (or is it journaled?) file systems. ext3 is an extension of the good old ext2, you can switch between journaled and non-journaled without trouble and you do not need to reformat your partitions to use it. ReiserFS and a completely new approach, using different algorithms to store the data (binary trees) and has some more features (like resizing without reformatting and the capability of plugins to extend the functionality). I guess as soon as they both are ready for productive use, it will be yet another religious issue like your favourite editor or window manager... Let's see how SGI's XFS and IBMs JFS come along.
