As detailed in the link you quoted, the Linux kernel supports old Bell
Labs UFS, 4.4BSD FFS, a couple flavors of SunOS/Solaris UFS, and three
flavors of NeXTSTEP UFS. The UFS filesystem driver requires a mount
argument "ufstype=" so that it can work with all of these UFS formats.
I'm curious whether the MacOS X filesystem is closer to the {Net,Open,
Free}BSD FFS or to the NeXTStep UFS, and in either case whether the Linux
ufs module will work without modifications.
I don't currently have access to my development PowerMac, so I can't test
it myself. Could anyone out there give it a try? Remember, always mount
a scratch monkey!
