No, not on FreeBSD.-current It might be on release (2.2) though. > 3. do we have any ext2fs-tools such as e2fsck (important) and mke2fs ? > (if we mount ext2fs read-write and system crashes, will the > system fsck ext2fs-partition while rebooting ?) I have not gotten around to those yet -- but they will be there within a month or so. You probably can port the stuff from lites -- I think that at least the fsck works only with a few mods. Sorry for not being more complete in my answers. One of my goals is to fully support ext2fs as a user filesystem in 2.2. I would be suprised if we will be able to boot from ext2fs though.
