Hello, I don't seem to be able to mount the FreeBSD-5.1-RELEASE's ufs partition in linux-2.6.0-test11, which occupies another partition on the same machine (which is Acer Aspire 1304XC).
Has the ufs format changed in 5.1? I specify ufstype=44bsd in the mount command. Thank you Jan :> Disk /dev/hda: 20.0 GB, 20003880960 bytes :> 16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38760 cylinders :> Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 = 516096 bytes :> :> Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System :> /dev/hda1 1 29064 14648224+ 83 Linux :> /dev/hda2 29065 30056 499968 82 Linux swap :> /dev/hda3 * 30057 38760 4386816 a5 FreeBSD :My partition is not beyond 2 GB, but your configuration should currently :not be a problem.

I am using the partition for my BSD boots happily, though - maybe the ufs has changed in freebsd 5.1 ? I will ask on the BSD list. Thanks for your time, Heiko.
