Hah! I think I found the problem. I just noticed that gparted calls my openbsd/ufs partition an *ext2* filesystem! I seem to recall similar messages from other fs utility programs about the magic number being for ext2 even though it's really ufs. This is probably a leftover magic number from an earlier linux or such. I haven't found any way to change just the magic number instead of deleting the partition and starting over. Do you know of an easy way to do it? I could use a hex disc editor but I don't know where the magic number is, exactly.
