 Hello!

 I have an awkward setup right here.

 I have my first harddrive split into one NTFS partition which runs Windows,
 and one FAT32 partition which serves as a temporary docking station for all
 my files which I later secure into my 2nd harddrive running FreeBSD.

 Can I skip this temporary docking station somehow?

 I was thinking, since UFS2 is an open specification, it shouldn't be
 impossible creating a Win32 interface that will let me read and write to
 one.

 Does anyone know?


http://sourceforge.net/projects/ufs2tools
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffsdrv


ffsdrv reboots my computer everytime I try to access files above 50MB.
ufs2tools doesn't let me access the harddrive, it only attempts to copy.

Any idea?

Thanks,
Kyrre

I'm fine with having this temporary docking station however since it's FAT32,
certain scripts (like rename scripts) make my FreeBSD lock up and freeze.
