762306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  FreeVxFS is a file system driver that support the VERITAS VxFS(TM)
862306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  file system format.  VERITAS VxFS(TM) is the standard file system
962306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  of SCO UnixWare (and possibly others) and optionally available
1062306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  for Sunsoft Solaris, HP-UX and many other operating systems. However
1162306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  these particular OS implementations of vxfs may differ in on-disk
1262306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  data endianness and/or superblock offset. The vxfs module has been
1362306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  tested with SCO UnixWare and HP-UX B.10.20 (pa-risc 1.1 arch.)
1462306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  Currently only readonly access is supported and VxFX versions
1562306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  2, 3 and 4. Tests were performed with HP-UX VxFS version 3.

1762306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  NOTE: the file system type as used by mount(1), mount(2) and
1862306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  fstab(5) is 'vxfs' as it describes the file system format, not
1962306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  the actual driver.

2162306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  There is a userspace utility for HP-UX logical volumes which makes
2262306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  creating HP-UX logical volumes easy from HP-UX disk block device file
2362306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  or regular file with image of the disk. See:

2662306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be
2762306a36Sopenharmony_ci	  called freevxfs.  If unsure, say N.
