okay some of you have suggested ext2ifs and ffsdrv, both prog might work with bsd configured as primary on a secondary drive , but mine is on the same drive as windows in an extended partition, (8)
ifs and ffs are as sloppy as a welfare recipient so far i have found that http://www.acc.umu.se/~bosse/ swapfs and ext2fs and reiserfs works, im setup in OPENBSD THOU, and i need a driver that would do the same as these two, ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ i dont are if they cant write, as long as i can read ill be happy, ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ allthou writing to the openbsd swap part would be nice ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ i have 8 os on this SAME harddrive, reading the extended partition ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ that are bsd with my micosoft xp/vista would be welcome, and would ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^ save me LOTS of space havin to import everything out of my bsd's ftp thats on the SaMe drive. any good suggestion welcomed --- On Wed, 10/22/08, Neko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > From: Neko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: oT - ffsdrv / ufs2tools free alternative , to read ffs AND/OR BSD > SWAP in xp.. > To: misc@openbsd.org > Date: Wednesday, October 22, 2008, 9:14 PM > Hi, > > after a few trial i haven't got much chance with the > ffsdrv, and the code > seems kinda old, i *think* some changes occured in the > lasts version > that make this obsolete, im about to have a poke at > ufs2tools, anyways > this is what im hacking rite now.
