find type of filesystem (*nix/windows)

[Ittay Dror]

How can I find in ruby the type of filesystem from a given file? (pseudo
code: FileSystem.type('/path/to/file')). I'm especially interested to
know if the fs is networked (nfs, cifs) or on a local disk.


Thank you,

Ittay

I would just ask the system:

currently_mounted = `mount`

gem install sys-filesystem

Enjoy!
