ext1
[edit]Has this ever really been called "ext1"? It seems to me that it is still referred to as just "ext" even after the existence of ext2, ext3 and ext4. Any notable source where it is called ext1? mmj (talk) 04:11, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- Removed "ext1". Replace it if you know of notable sources which call it ext1. mmj (talk) 05:40, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
Unix File System (UFS)
[edit]The Unix File System (UFS) is not "the original Unix filesystem". The original filesystem did not have a name; rather, it was an integral, if well-documented, component of Unix. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Josh5923 (talk • contribs) 08:57, June 9, 2020 (UTC)
Rémy Card
[edit]Removed the following sentence, and its associated reference. In the interview, Rémy Card discusses his involvement with ext2, not ext. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Josh5923 (talk • contribs) 09:18, June 9, 2020 (UTC)
- It was designed by Rémy Card to overcome certain limitations of the MINIX file system.<ref>{{Cite web | url = http://www.april.org/groupes/entretiens/remy_card.html | title = Rémy Card (Interview, April 1998) | date = April 19, 1999 | publisher = April Association | accessdate = 2012-02-08 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20120204082557/http://www.april.org/groupes/entretiens/remy_card.html | archive-date = February 4, 2012 | url-status = dead }} (In French)</ref>
- I'm a little confused by your edits. The two remaining sources on this page (a) credit Remy with creating the original ext filesystem, and (b) also state it was designed to overcome limitations of the Minix filesystem. Are you suggesting some part of this is incorrect? AlistairMcMillan (talk) 17:42, 9 June 2020 (UTC)
- No, I'm not saying there's nothing wrong with these two sentences, nor the sources used to support them. I read the original text as using the interview to support Remy's implementing EXT; I did not see any other reference. Because the interview makes no mention of Remy's involvement with EXT, I thought the sentence was entirely unsupported. Josh5923 (talk) 23:15, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
