- This is a simple port of the Linux defragger. For minixfs it works as two
- separate programs defrag and defrag2 for V1 and V2 filesystems. Since the
- original was covered by Gnu Copyleft, so is this. The original sources are
- readily obtainable from any Linux ftp site.
-
- A few notes. This version has all the functionality of the Linux
- version. The docs have been modified slightly to take account of specific
- changes (all minor) for the ST version.
-
- In case the original docs don't make it obvious: use extreme caution
- when using this. fsck should report a clean filesystem before even attempting
- to run it in anything other than readonly mode. Back up your data before hand.
- If this program gets interupted when writing, then the fileystem is probably
- irretrievably trashed. In other words after it has started in anything other
- than readonly mode, don't even think about stopping it by signals, resets or
- power downs.

- Any bug reports to shenson@nyx.cs.du.edu .
-
- PS NB some of the files are supposed to be zero length. This was just so I could
- make the minimum changes to the original sources (and to make porting newer
- versions easier).
