An [Acronym] for [Unix] FileSystem.

+''InNeedOfRefactor: this page is mostly confused and needs a thorough revision after a good research of the filesystem history.''
It was originally developed from the first versions of [UNIX] at [AT&T]. The FileSystem reached its current status in the 4.x [BSD] distributions. It it currently used in [FreeBSD], [NetBSD] as well as [OpenBSD] and the [Solaris] Operating Environment. The [Linux] [Kernel] only includes experimental support.
[FreeBSD] versions 5.0 introduced UFS2, which allows FileSystem Snapshots, background fscking, as well as support for volumes over 1TB in size.
