Greetings:

I have two hard drives:

Drive one is a 1.2-GB hard drive with a 53-MB DOS partition and the rest
given over to Red Hat Linux 5.0, and 

Drive 2 is a 2-GB hard drive dedicated to FreeBSD, running 3.1.

I would like to be able to copy some files from myself in Linux to myself in
FreeBSD. I assume that this is possible. Can I read Linux files on my first
hard drive from FreeBSD? And, assuming that this is possible, how can I do
it? Pointers to relevant FMs would be most welcome. [I thought that this
would be a matter of mounting the Linux file system, but I didn't see how to
do that or how to call up the Linux partition. It does not appear in the
fstab.]

Copying files to another medium and them reading them to FreeBSD or emailing
the files to myself seem inefficient and/or expensive....

Thanks, everybody.
