Great, I have mounted tux3 filesystem under UML with stuffs in this

You just have to give a "cont" command a bunch of times and you will
eventually get to a command prompt. The reason for this is, uml uses
the segfault interrupt as part of its machine simulation, and there
is no exsiting way for uml and gdb to communicate in such a way that
uml can recognize that the interrupt came from its own code and
filter it.

Hmm.. seems like a redundancy;
Anyways I looked at you're site, but am still
confused at what tux3 is: what is tux3?

(at first I thought it was a video game, but was wrong);
can I use tux3 to secure a linux system or is it for
something else?


Hmmm, I thought

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Tux3 is a write-anywhere, atomic commit, btree-based versioning filesystem. It is the spiritual and moral successor of Tux2, the most famous filesystem that was never released. The main purpose of Tux3 is to embody Daniel Phillips's new ideas on storage data versioning. The secondary goal is to provide a more efficient snapshotting and replication method for the Zumastor NAS project, and a tertiary goal is to be better than ZFS.

was pretty clear. What are you missing?

Ciao,

I guess this is what is confusing to me:
atomic commit, btree-based versioning.

irregardless about how it's worded,
I'm wondering if I should use this mechanism,
or not.
