mounting linux partitions
I have installed a linux distro on a partition of my machine (latest Mandriva i686, default installation). I only need it to use a piece of software for Nikon Coolscan IV film scanner (yes, sane works, but a cheap commercial package called vuescan has better interface and uses some hardware features like infrared channel that sane does not support, at least in current stable version). Now I would like to mount ext3 partition from FreeBSD at least for reading, or vice versa, UFS2 from linux for writing. With kernel option EXT2FS, I can $ mount -t etx2fs /dev/ad12s7 /linux but then if I do $ ls /linux I get a 'Bad file descriptor' for directory /linux. e2fsprogs are installed, and fsck.ext2 or fsck.ext3 think well of the partition.

system boot taking more time, unable to mount vfat, linux partitions,
Hi, I am using FreeBSd6.2 My FreeBSD takes around 90 seconds after detecting my hard disks. I use my second hard disk as a backup to store data, FIrst hard disk has linux and FreeBSD installed.

#6.1 install problem#: can't find other linux partitions at the Partition Stage
I had install Gentoo Linux on the /dev/hda (40G) , the partition table is as following: hda1 PrimaryLinux ext3 98.71 M hda5 Logical Linux swap / Solaris 1019.94 M hda6 Logical Linux ext3 8891.53M hda7 Logical Linux ReiserFS 3076.26M hda8 Logical Linux ext3 6925.69M Pri/Log Free Space20003.89M I want to use the remaining 20G space to install FreeBSD 6.0-release . When I was installing freebsd 6.1-release at the Partition stage , the Partition Program can't find any linux partition or the free 20G space, but just displayed the whole disk. I used the same freebsd install disk on other machine , everythin goes well .Can't you tell me how to deal with this problem ? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
FreeBSD install disables linux partitions and system
Hello, I have (had?) a machine with two drives with two major partions on each. One on the first drive was used for Mandriva linux, one on the second used for its /home folder. I wanted to try FreeBSD because I could not get my Plextor SCSI CD-R/W drive to operate under Mandriva 2006. I copied /home to the first partition, that being as much of a back-up as I could do. Then I followed the instructions in the FreeBSD handbook for a dual-boot system. This involves putting the FreeBSD bootloader on both drives. Once I had FreeBSD 6.0 and KDE up and running, I recompiled my kernel with extfs functionality and tried to mount my Linux drives. This failed: bsd# mount -t ext2fs /dev/ad2s2 /linux-tmp mount_ext2fs: /dev/ad2s2: Invalid argument This is what I am getting now. I also got you must have read-write privileges or be root, but for some reason that is gone. ad2s2 is what my old /home partition showed up as in sysinstall. I installed and tried e2fsck, but no use: bsd# /usr/local/sbin/e2fsck /dev/ad2s2 e2fsck 1.38 (30-Jun-2005) Couldn't find ext2 superblock, trying backup blocks... /usr/local/sbin/e2fsck: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/ad2s2 The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock: e2fsck -b 8193 device I tried a few other numbers, but to no avail. What makes this bad for me is that the FreeBSD bootloader will not boot Mandriva. Attempting to choose anything but FreeBSD rings the system bell and does nothing else. The Mandriva rescue disk is unable to restore its original bootloader, or read from the drive with the FreeBSD partition on it, or repairthe system without wiping the disk. I no have no access to my data at all. I don't think it is meant to function this way, but I read the install part of the handbook three times and cycled round in sysinstall at least as many times to make sure I had it right. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
