I've assembled some notes from old manuals and other sources
on the formats used for on-disk file systems through the
Seventh Edition:

Additional notes, comments on style, and whatnot are welcome.
(It may be sensible to send anything in the last two categories
directly to me, rather than to the whole list.)

Hi William, I'll pass this on to a PDP-11 Unix mailing list for some ideas.
You might also like to try the Usenet newsgroups: alt.sys.pdp11, vmsnet.pdp-11.
Cheers,
Warren
