Re: [ros-dev] Command line

Hi
I like see chkdsk and diskopy into reactos
but I do not like a hacked chkdsk.
to implement chkdsk we need fmifs be implement.
I do not how far it have come. or what need todo
same thing with format. we need fmifs.
fmifs  is layer betwin diffent filesystem and user mode u can say
u can format, chkdisk any filesystem if u using fmifs in windows
same way will reactos go. Are u willing helping us improve it ?
And fix so fmifs working for format, defrag, diskcopy, chckdsk
?
