Hi Rahul, The mount capability has to be included as a kernel option in a custom build kernel. I forget exactly what it's called (I'm writing in another OS on the system, so I can't check it right now), but I think it's something like this: option EXT2FS Have you included that in your kern

Hi Bruce, Thanks for this info. It's way beyond my technical understanding (which is truely minimal!), but I think I get the idea. What would this look like as a series of commands? Or better yet, what's the "right" way to share data between FreeBSD -current/coming and linux in a dual boot

Hi, I had to install the e2fstools port before I could access my e2fs partitions after installing -current. Thereafter everything has been fine. No problems with the disk, etc. The only thing that is a problem is if your e2fs partion(s) are mounted and your system crashes or the mount is un
