In the live system from theSimply Linux 6.0.2RC2 DVD, attr is not installed, although it contains basic helpful utilities for setting the properties of files in filesystems, for example, turning on/off compression in ntfs-3g -- http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-advanced/data-compression/ : # Mark a directory for compression (on a small-endian computer) setfattr -h -v 0x00080000 -n system.ntfs_attrib directory-name # Disable compression for files to be created in a directory setfattr -h -v 0x00000000 -n system.ntfs_attrib directory-name I suggest to add "attr" to the live system, so that such properties of files on mounted filesystems could be managed from the live system.
Added in current RC.
