Summary : FUSE based filesystem that allows you to mount an arbitrary file or block device
URL : https://chunkfs.florz.de/
License : GPLv2+
Description : ChunkFS is a FUSE based filesystem that allows you to mount an arbitrary file
: or block device as a directory tree of files that each represent a chunk of
: user-specified size of the mounted file. The chunk size is global per mount,
: but at mount time any value can be specified. (If the file size isn't a
: multiple of the specified chunk size, the last file in the tree simply will be
: smaller than the chunk size.) Only read access is supported at the moment.
:
: UnChunkFS is the inversion of ChunkFS—it allows you to mount a ChunkFS tree (or
: a copy of it, of course), and gives you a single file named image that has the
: same contents as the file or device you created the tree from by mounting it as
: a ChunkFS.
