5 	  FreeVxFS is a file system driver that support the VERITAS VxFS(TM)
6 	  file system format.  VERITAS VxFS(TM) is the standard file system
7 	  of SCO UnixWare (and possibly others) and optionally available
8 	  for Sunsoft Solaris, HP-UX and many other operating systems. However
9 	  these particular OS implementations of vxfs may differ in on-disk
10 	  data endianess and/or superblock offset. The vxfs module has been
11 	  tested with SCO UnixWare and HP-UX B.10.20 (pa-risc 1.1 arch.)
12 	  Currently only readonly access is supported and VxFX versions
13 	  2, 3 and 4. Tests were performed with HP-UX VxFS version 3.
14 
15 	  NOTE: the file system type as used by mount(1), mount(2) and
16 	  fstab(5) is 'vxfs' as it describes the file system format, not
17 	  the actual driver.
18 
19 	  There is a userspace utility for HP-UX logical volumes which makes
20 	  creating HP-UX logical volumes easy from HP-UX disk block device file
21 	  or regular file with image of the disk. See:
22 	         https://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-vxfs/
23 
24 	  To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be
25 	  called freevxfs.  If unsure, say N.
