That wouldn't be bad.

Of course, I'd take Reiser if they went that route.

Not to mention the TCP/IP stack they lifted from BSD years ago.

HA!

Windows supports FAT, FAT32, and NTFS. I'm unaware of native support of any other filesystems.

The file system types which are currently supported under Linux include:

adfs, affs, autofs,  coda,  coherent,  cramfs,  devpts, efs,  ext,  ext2,  ext3,  hfs, hpfs, iso9660, jfs, minix, msdos, ncpfs, nfs, nfs4, ntfs,  proc,  qnx4,  ramfs,  reiserfs,  romfs, smbfs,  sysv,  tmpfs, udf, ufs, umsdos, usbfs, vfat, xenix, xfs, xiafs.  Note that coherent, sysv and xenix  are  equivalent  and that  xenix  and  coherent  will be removed at some point in the future — use sysv instead. Since kernel version 2.1.21 the types ext  and xiafs do not exist anymore. Earlier, usbfs was known as usbdevfs.
