I'm not sure if the 2.2.12 kernel supports any form of compression by default.?? But, I did get e2compr successfully compiled into the Linux kenel.?? The patches did not work with the RH 6.0 stock kernel, but it did work with one I download from ftp://ftp.kernel.org?? I did have a few kernel panics on creation of files during testing but I'm using this package only for compression of files on a RO fs that resides in flash.?? I need to get X in a tight space.?? Does the stock kernel support any form of compression?

In reading the man pages on chattr, it seems that a +c will make a file compressed.???? Is this true??? Do I need to add the ext2 compression patch to make this happen or does ext2 support some form of compression?

Thanks, 
Chris
