Subject: [9fans] WHY two different methods of mounting (ext2srv vs. cdfs) ?
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 0cf61b24-eace-11e9-9e20-41e7f4b1d025

hi !

i wonder why ext2srv and cdfs differ in method of mounting?

ext2srv when run posts fd in directory /srv and user can use this
/srv/ext2 descriptor to mount a linux partition somewhere in system
for example /n/linux

BUT

cdfs doesn't place any fd in /srv and automatically mounts itself
to /mnt/cd using default device /dev/sdD0.

WHY these two fileservers differ?

thanx for answers.
