Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hello, I am having alot of problems. Hopefully you will be able to help me. First, I can't mount my linux partition from FreeBSD. Everytime I do: mount -t ext2fs /dev/wd0s1 /mnt I get, : mount: ext2fs filesystem unsupported or something along those lines. I have the book "The complete FreeBSD" distributed by walnut creek cdrom. But it says nothing what so ever bout this. How do I add ext2fs support into my kernel? And, I know I shouldn't ask you this next question, but, you never know. I have the same problem with linux. I can't mount my BSD partition from linux. what would the fs type be? And how can I add support for the fs type? And, problem number 2. I have a Iomega Zip drive (Paralelle SCSI). It is very simple to get it working in Linux. But I haven't the slightest idea how to even get FreeBSD to know it exists. How can I make FreeBSD notice it? Problem number 3. I am on a regular analog line. 56k motorola modem surfr. Once again, getting ppp to work in linux is very simple. I can get FreeBSD to dial out using pppd and connect. It will assign me a dynamic IP and everything. Except, the only problem is, whenever I try to connect to a remote host or do anything other then connect to localhost, I get "unknown host". I've tried everything I know of. I have edited /etc/resolv.conf to the correct NS's and a few other things. But everything I seem to do doesn't work. Any ideas of what can be wrong? I know these may seem like lame questions. But I am very new to FreeBSD. I have been with linux for quiet a while and kinda got used to it. Here is some information about my system if it helps you any: OS: FreeBSD 2.2.2 RAM: 24mb HD: 1 maxtor 2.0GB (IDE) 1 Samsung 2.1GB (IDE) CDROM: ATAPI IDE 6x Thanx for all your help in advance. ------------------------------------------------------------ "Depression is just ther obvious solution for putting things aside" mml@sunlink.net http://www.sunlink.net/~mml -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBNCQHVf2osiC/e/e1AQHR3QP/SX+JicHOYTfiVVTJWUGspTCFNV5/d/yV u6gcdOZXFymjUVJEI7zTJXTSdHD0rTZ8HUXLxS5b22BDk+8D7OB18nx1lBryDqhU 3tfR7DJns5SPQczi0pBfvXdIiEjVL3yj3zb40s64y8WwTq0rGxyY3/8oQcyhdqdc oI3hLyn0uMs= =piM2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
