Subject: using another fs from an xfs

Hi all,
I was wondering what exactly you can and cannot do from within an xfs.
For example, I'd still like to write a UNIXMODE fs, which would be based
on TOSfs. Should I use a trick like ofake? Can I call GEMDOS through the
kernel structure to open a file? I can always copy TOSfs and hack on it,
but TOSfs still changes a lot, and it would duplicate a lot of code.
It would be nice to be able to do this sort of thing, I keep dreaming
of a zoo fs. (cd /z/a/newstuff.zoo;ls ;-)
Another question: Is it possible to use some sort of timer in an xfs to
periodically sync(), without using a seperate update process? Can I just
hook into a timer vector (vsync)?
Bart.
