Linux ext2fs IFS for OS/2 - ext2-os2 V0.6 now available

WHAT IS EXT2-OS2  ?
- -------------------

ext2-os2.ifs is a file system driver that allows OS/2 to seamlessly access
Linux native partitions (ext2fs partitions) in both read and write modes.
Once installed, Linux partitions appear as standard OS/2 drive letters, one
per Linux partition. It is a port of the original Linux ext2fs kernel code.


This package also includes the latest version of Deon van der Westhuysen's Linux
partition filter driver (ext2flt V1.2c), which allows ext2-os2 to work with
ext2fs partitions without altering the partition table.


MAIN NEW FEATURES SINCE V0.5 :
- -----------------------------

- - ... mainly bug fixes :-))

keep improving it !
