I remember my transition time, FreeBSD 2 seems to be able handling the FreeBSD 1 file systems, but the ``clean flag is not set''. FreeBSD 1 can see the FreeBSD 2 file systems, but cannot handle anything there, even the simplest attempt to run fsck -n will immediately barf. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
