   I gave up on Linux when the update to OpenSUSE 3.2 screwed up my MBR    
   and couldn't boot eCS until I removed the Linux partitions, but before   
   that I could read the eCS JFS volumes, but there were problems with    
   the file level permissions.  They don't exist under the eCS formatted    
   JFS and I could never successfully set most of them under Linux.
