== [[Template:File system]] (F) and [[Template:Infobox Filesystem]] (I) ==

I agree that (I) is more consistent with Wikipedia standards and looks a little better than (F), which I whacked together in a hurry to replace the "Common File System Features" table.

The only articles I've added (I) to are [[HFS Plus]] and [[NTFS]].  I'll tag my template for deletion as soon as they're converted.

But just a couple of minor nit-picky things:
# Please use [[WP:NC#Lowercase_second_and_subsequent_words|lowercase titles]] for article and template names wherever possible.
# There may need to be two columns for some items in the template, because features and limits of the on-disk file system format and the actual OS implementation often differ.
# "File allocation" needs to be split into "free space mapping", "allocation mapping" and "metadata" because they're often kept track of with different data structures.
# I lumped per-file and per-volume compression into a single item in (F) because file systems only implement one or the other. Also, per-volume encryption is implemented at the block device level, not the file system level on many Unices, so I lumped that too.

&mdash;[[User:Ghakko|Ghakko]] 01:29, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

:# If you can rename (I), I dunno how to and was AlistairMcMillan who created the first.
:# Well the intention is to put what filesystem defines in the limits, not what every and every implementation wants. For example in FAT16, Windows NT uses the filesystem specification limit (64Kb cluster maximum), while DOS and Windows 9x are limited to 32Kb cluster, and Windows 2000 and XP limits FAT32 to be 32Gb while Windows 9x limits to 32Kb cluster as in FAT16, and as far as I think Linux's FAT implementation is able to violate the specification (128Kb cluster for ex.)
:# I agree but for simplicity, let it be as it is as most filesystems use the same structure for all. When it differs, it can be specified.
:# So, it can be "real-time compression" and "real-time encryption" and put in it "per-file" or "per-volume".
:Please answer as soon as possible so we can start replacing all tables with the infobox and request the "common filesystem features" article for remove (and put the infobox explanation in infoboxes list)
:[[User:Claunia|Claunia]] 05:16, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

::Just to keep things moving, I've converted [[NTFS]] and [[HFS Plus]] to (I) and renamed (I). (F) has also been tagged for deletion.  ;-)  I'll probably go on to fix up the Linux filesystems next.
::Thanks for your energetic clean-up work.
::&mdash;[[User:Ghakko|Ghakko]] 20:15, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

:::Ok so we currently have [[NTFS]], [[HFS Plus]], [[Hierarchical File System]], [[HPFS]], [[BeFS]] and [[File Allocation Table]].
:::Will check ASAP linux kernel source code for checking file system structures as well as all documentation I have at hand for adding limits. Please inform me here wherever you add the infobox.
:::Regards &mdash;[[User:Claunia|Claunia]] 00:08, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

== Binary times ==

Ok, so, for the ones that are implementing the infoboxes, I put the following:

Maximum date for unsigned 32-bit value of seconds from 1970/01/01 00:00:00
2106/02/07 06:28:16

Maximum date for signed 32-bit value of seconds from 1970/01/01 00:00:00
2038/01/19 03:14:08

I think, that all *NIX fs uses one or the other.

== GPT partitions IDs (for adding to infoboxes) ==

Put everything in [[GUID_Partition_Table]], but, what ones are the GUIDs for AIX/Itanium, OpenVMS/Itanium?

== ARC console on BeBox ==

Claunia,<p>
On my talk page you pointed out that the BeBox in fact cannot run the ARC firmware, which I had apparently mistakenly asserted in the BeBox article.  Certainly you appear correct&mdash;it seems ARC was in fact never released for the BeBox line.  I apologize if my error caused any trouble; I will try to be more careful in the future.<p>
&mdash;[[User:Ryanaxp|Ryanaxp]] 21:37, September 5, 2005 (UTC)

:Trouble, none.
:This is an open encyclopedia, everyone everywhere can have errors. Just there are enough people to check that things are correct ^^
:Thanks for fast answer, please request for delete the image of "arc on bebox" or at least change it to "arc on prep" as it is a screenshot of a PReP (maybe an IBM or Motorola one, who knows).

What is a "sad [[xD]]"?--[[User:Hhielscher|Hhielscher]] 11:59, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

== Microkernel ==

Well, maybe not... although, I thought [[QNX]] was meant to have one? Doesn't help that the [[microkernel]] page here even lists BeOS.

The whole 'BeOS is a microkernel' thing seems to have come about from a misinterpretation of what micro meant - yes, the kernel is 800KB uncompressed, but its not a true microkernel at all - there are non-essential functions in the kernel (but even the IDE and base filesystem drivers are modules). 

However, theres no article for [[Kinda a microkernel, but its not, really... no, really]], so microkernel will do fine. --[[User:Kiand|Kiand]] 00:20, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

== How to spell UNIX? ==

http://web.greens.org/about/unix.html

Just, you read "The Bell Labs documentation was very careful to always spell UNIX in all capital letters, and small caps whereever possible.", so UNIX is UNIX, Unix and unix are just incorrect forms just too used.

Please revert all of your edits.

&mdash;[[User:Claunia|Claunia]] 18:31, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

:The Unix expertise of an organization on Green parties that apparently pays so much attention to detail that their HTML could've been assembled by a five-year-old, and the fact that they refer to "MULTICS" (which was of course "Multics" [they even link 'MULTICS' to a site that uses only 'Multics']), et al. aside, please read [[Talk:Unix#UNICS vs UNIX]].

:I will not be reverting my edits and anyone categorically reverting them will naturally get an RfC, as that would obviously be a colossal waste of many peoples' time (on top of being wrong). &brvbar; [[User:Reisio|Reisio]] 19:56, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

::So you know how to spell UNIX better than the creators and the copyright holders? &mdash;[[User:Claunia|Claunia]] 21:37, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

:::If you've read [[Talk:Unix#UNICS vs UNIX]], you know that Dennis Ritchie, a co-creator of Unix, has acknowledged that it was originally "Unix".  Others associated also use "Unix" and while I haven't personally seen a good quote of Thompson saying "It's 'Unix'", logic suggests his view is in accordance with theirs.  Clearly, though, when you referred to "the creators", you meant Bell Labs and AT&T, who did mostly use "UNIX" (at least after 1974).  Nowadays, due to idiotic legalities, "UNIX" is only what The Open Group says it is and nothing more, but "Unix" was, is and always shall be the OS in general.  All that aside, I almost certainly know more about how to spell it than the copyright holders - they care about their bottom lines, and I am a pedant. &brvbar; [[User:Reisio|Reisio]] 22:42, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

== Separating blue and red links ==

I am looking for help for a project that I am doing and I noticed that you list yourself as a computer programmer with javascript and html skills.  I have left a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Computer_help_desk#New_cases message] with the [[Wikipedia:Computer help desk|Computer help desk]] but have yet to receive any replies or comments.  Any help you can offer would be wonderful.  

I am looking for an easier way to parse and separate red and blue links at the [[WP:MEA|missing encyclopedic articles project]] so that valid blue links can be removed and article that need to be created can be grouped together.  See this [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiProject_Missing_encyclopedic_articles%2FHot%2FH2&diff=34643319&oldid=33565428 edit] ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Missing_encyclopedic_articles/Hot/H2&oldid=33565428 before] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Missing_encyclopedic_articles/Hot/H2 after]) for the kind of work that is being done currently by hand.  If you can provide assistance by writing a script or referring me to another person who might be more helpful, I would greatly appreciate it.  Ideally it would sort the html and return wikisyntax that could be entered back in, though I would be grateful with anything.

== FAT filesystem ==

You can mention FASTFAT if you wish. It is as relevant to the FAT topic as would be the discussion of the Linux or BSD msdos filesystem drivers. The VFAT driver is really only discussed to justify why people say VFAT and not LFNs. And yeah, I do operating system development too.

== ''Time_(computing)'' for DOS ==

Hi / Buenas:<br>
You mentionned at [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Time_%28computing%29&diff=167657795&oldid=166612110 18:59 on October 28th, 2007], that the [[Temporal resolution|resolution]] of [[DOS]] was only 2 seconds, with the comment “''DOS internal structures handles seconds in a 5 bits structure, so resolution is 2 sec.''”<br>
If I read correctly the article about [[temporal resolution]], it refers to the [[precision]] of the measurement. And if I further read the [[Accuracy_and_precision]] article, it should refer to the apparent data delivered (while accuracy is about how they are ''correct'', or ''acertadas'' if you prefer.)<br>
Now unless I am mistaken, DOS (both the TIME command and the GETTIME interrupt call) delivers system time with 2 digits beyond the second, that is 1/100th of a second ''resolution''. While as far as I know, in the typical case of the [[IBM PC]], its accuracy is at most of 55 ms, the same as the resolution of the underlying BIOS clock.<br>
As such, I take the liberty to cancel your edit. Of course you are free to correct me if I am wrong, particularly if in fact resolution is to be meant as accuracy (but then the correct value would be probably 55 ms).

Perhaps we should have '''another''' part, about how to retrieve filesystem timestamps, which will then state that DOS resolution is 2 sec, and similarly for the various other OS and languages; however my knowledge is rather limited here; it looks like you know much more about filesystems, so perhaps you can improve it this way.

== Origin of the LVM GPT type UUID? ==

Hi Claunia,

All the world cites util-linux for saying that the GPT type UUID for LVM is E6D6D379-F507-44C2-A23C-238F2A3DF928.  The util-linux source code has a comment that seems to indicate it's from the Discoverable Partitions Specification (it's not and never was), but the [https://github.com/util-linux/util-linux/commit/766d5156c43b784700d28d1c1141008b2bf35ed7 commit message] cites Wikipedia.  Wikipedia doesn't have a citation, and it was [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=GUID_Partition_Table&diff=prev&oldid=21942486 added by you back in 2005]. Any chance you remember where you got it from, it'd be neat to know where it originated.

:Hi,
:I just got it using the disk partitioning tool of Linux. Considering the date, it was most probably gptfdisk from Gentoo Linux but I cannot get such an old source code, oldest one I've found in their official SourceForge is around 2009 and they have that GUID already.
