As a matter of fact, I was supprised to discover that my CAD filesystem (which I created under NetBSD-0.8 on a separate SCSI disk) passed the fsck and was entirely readable by my DEC 3000/400AXP running OSF1.2 The result was that I didn't have to recover my source off the backup tape. (Of course I still haven't converted the source to 64bit format...) Philippe O. Pouliquen (philippe@zeus.ece.jhu.edu)
