im trying to report the issue of the ffs driver you sent me to its developper, yes it can access disk labels.
yes it sees other disk labels, but if you have /home on disk label d it wont work my disklabel is kinda like so bsd wd0a / wd0b -swap- wd0c -disk- wd0d /home exotic wd0i /dos wd0j /xp wd0k /ntfs plus there is an ext2 and plan 9 partition. linux does it all, plan9 is self capsuled, but still accessible from linux, xp reads all even the swap of linux, i but bsd, ... i have to pass all from ffs > fat32 > ntfs or ntfs > fat32 > ffs and its not even a virtual volume in windows, its a phisical extended partition. i know its a warzone in the partitions fields when it come to multiple os i have being dealing with this since bsd 3.7. now i use bsd from 2.7 to 3.7 enjoying no microsolft products at all, not even linux, then i had to because of work /contract requirements, now its 4.4 about 8y later, and nothing is done, since my system grew from bsd, its on bsd, not ext2, ext3 or reiser, shure its readable in hex and security sucks, but thats the point , readability. but its odd, nothing reads it properly. neko --- On Sun, 10/26/08, Alexey Suslikov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > From: Alexey Suslikov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: NTFS-3G Stable Read/Write Driver ready to merge on cvs obsd ? > To: "Jonathan Schleifer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Cc: [email protected] > Date: Sunday, October 26, 2008, 4:19 PM > On Sun, Oct 26, 2008 at 10:11 PM, Jonathan Schleifer > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > "Alexey Suslikov" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > >> And there is the http://www.fs-driver.org/ - also > free > >> and do read/write on ext2 for Windows. > > > > Crashed my ext2 data partition more than once, but I > could always > > recover it with e2fsck, but the files in / all lost > their names then. > > However, the stuff in sub directories still had names. > So /foo/bar > > was /lost+found/$inode_no/bar after e2fsck. > > So? > > I crashed many FAT32 partitions.
