I didn't try to compiled the mke2fs sources though... The /usr/src/sys/gnu/ext2fs are the sources of the ext2fs kernel module, but this module is only for accessing an ext2fs filesystem, not for making one. OTOH, the linux binary compatibility package (linux_base-6.1) doesn't come with the ext2fs tools :-( -Farid.
