[comp.os.os2] Installable File Systems

In looking into OS/2, I have been sorely frustrated by the
default file system.  What I really am looking for is a file
system that adheres to POSIX not only in file and directory
names but also with respect to file attributes.

To what extent does the HPFS address this, and are there other
Installable File Systems that would better fill my needs ??

In large part, this really is addressing the reality that OS/2
and its default file system really doesn't meet the needs of
a lot of us and while we might not demand a full multiuser
system, we sure want a single-user environment a lot closer to
what workstation OSs have.  Yes I know that OS/2 isn't UNIX and
I'm not asking it to be -- I do want more than OS/2 seems to have
right now.
