I just installed it (debian package). It is totally awesome.

You can literally cruise through your filesystem like a space ship. I hit
some heavy stuff when I made the jump into /dev. Wow! I'm a bit lost now
at the edge of the universe, I mean filesystem at sector 150/180, but I'm
getting back to /etc.

I guess this is not conductive to work, but it's a great ride.

Gotta go see if I can fly back to /home for dinner.

Buckle up.
