`I'm currently working on a driver for Windows 95 and Windows NT that will run under the IFS (Installable File System) for Win32. I'm at the stage right now where I can successfully read in the superblock and the group descriptors of a test ext2 partition in my concept testing program and am about ready to attempt to read the root directory.
