Hi, I'm using a Linux 2.4.18 (stock) kernel, and I want to mount a FreeBSD UFS filesystem (FreeBSD 3.5-STABLE). From what I've read so far, I can only do this read only. Is there anyone here who uses both Linux and FreeBSD who can tell me how to a) mount a freebsd filesystem under linux rw, if it can be done b) explain why no one has written a freebsd filesystem driver for Linux? (Does it have to do with disklabels or something? I guess Linux and BSD look at filesystems quite a bit differently, huh?) c) pass a switch to the stock ufs filesystem kernel module so it will handle 4.4bsd (or if the kernel must be recompiled). I wanted to get the bsd filesystems data copied over before I recompile, if possible--I had some other goodies I wanted to compile in that I must research first. TIA! -- David S.

He's a very sick man. -- Fred Allen To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
