One of my hosters says they provide a ram based linux recovery
tool, but I'm actually using freebsd on the hardware so am
wondering if linux knows how to mount UFS partitions?

Yes, it does
...... thanks


That is if the kernel has UFS and BSD labels support compiled into
the kernel. Be aware that UFS support isn't really 100% stable yet,
so they marked UFS writing as "dangerous" in the Linux kernel file
systems config section. However, UFS fs reading is "stable".

Mr garrett
TQ for highlighting it.. referring to your statement there.. izzit the same like
NTFS mount on linux? read-only and not stable/supported on writing?

TQ
