How do you install the vdfs drivers to allow mounting of the vdfs file system? I have downloaded the vdfs drivers and tools. I unpacked the tar files and then ran the make command but I am getting errors. I attached a screenshot of the error. Thanks and sorry if this is a dumb question. I'm new to linux

I have the same problem. Could you indicate step by step what to do to install the vdfs drivers and the vdfs tool and how you can mount a partition?

thanks

I need to install the drivers on a new machine ? Or can they only be installed for one hard disk partition? Sorry for the question but I don't know linux
In practice, can I install the vdfs drivers for a specific hard-disk partition on the computer where linux is running ?
