Hello, I'm running centos5 with the centosplus kernel v2.6.18-8.1.8.el5 and i'm trying to read a drive that has a ufs2 partition on it. It was originally in a FreeBSD machine and has some data i'd like to get at. Googling indicated this should work with the command:
mount -r -t ufs -o ufstype=ufs2 <device> <mountpoint>
device is /dev/hdb5 and mountpoint is /mnt. I'm getting an error unknown filesystem type ufs. I'm assuming i have to load a module of some kind. Any help appreciated. Thanks. Dave.
ufs is not enabled in the centosplus kernel (or the standard kernel). It will be necessary to rebuild the kernel.
