Talk:CDFS

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Linux

The aricle says that CDFS is a virtual linux file system.
First of all, it is not virtual. The cd has its own standard file system.
Second, it is not a linux file system. Majority of the CDs have the cdfs file system in it and can be read by unix, linux, mac os x, and windows.

And in my experience, an RW disc with the CDFS file system becomes unusable after a relatively few uses adding files to the disc (at least it did when I used the CD Wizard built into Windoows XP SP1). --John R. Sellers 03:15, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

I think you better make a correction. Unsigned comment by 61.3.237.16 at 12:17, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

The name of that file system would be ISO 9660. "cdfs" just happens to be the name of the ISO 9660 file system driver on many operating systems. The Linux "cdfs" driver is described here because it's notably different. —Ghakko 12:49, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

i agree on any suggestions, comments, corrections because i dont see anything wrong, i would like to note that there should be a link to the linux documentation project which has its own well documented referals mostly compliant with the gnu gpl license e.g.
