I finally saved my old linux /home & /etc and wiped both partitions.

It seems that i'm getting binary characters inserted into my ext2fs; i 
suppose it doesn't write quite correctly.  In addition to the source 
problems, mail messages get oddly joined wiht junk in the middle.

SO I gave FreeBSD a 4G partition and installed.  I guess file exchange 
will be through tar's on the dos partition :(

I thought mount_union would do it, but it seems to warn that it *will* 
cause panics, so putting the linux /home behind /home doesn't seem a 
good idea :)
