Hi,

I was just reading about vinum and noticed this in their "Future 
Directions" section:

`An extensible UFS. It is possible to extend the size of some modern 
file systems after they have been created. Although UFS (the UNIX File 
System, previously called the Berkeley Fast File System) was not 
designed for such extension, it is trivial to implement extensibility. 
This feature would allow a user to add space to a file system which is 
approaching capacity by first adding subdisks to the plexes and then 
extending the file system.'

... just how "trivial" is it? Are there any plans to implement a 
growable filesystem for NetBSD?

Louis
