I have an EXT2 USB flash drive on a FreeBSD system, and it works perfectly.
I have also used EXT2 filesystems on IDE drives in a USB caddy, and they work
fine as well.

For making backups I would probably just use FAT32 and tar, because
practically anything (not just FreeBSD Linux) will mount FAT32 file
systems, and tar should respect your file attributes (owner, group,
creation timestamp, last modified timestamp, etc).
Except that you cannot create files
mount_ext2fs is available in FreeBSD but I can't speak for its
reliability.
i can. it simply works.

Except that you cannot create files with 4GB size on FAT32. You might be
able to use an archiver that is able to split archives into smaller parts.
or simply split(1)
This has always been a problem. FreeBSD is open source. So Linux is, but they
do not have a common filesystem that could

about trying to make the data as available as possible. Do anyone here have
any suggestion about what kind of filesystem would be best to use? Can ufs2
be read by linux? It looks like it from my short persual of google hits, but
it also looks kind of complicated. IS ext2 a safer bet? Anything
