Guest Jarhead Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 Hello, I have a drive with FreeBSD running on it and want to make a backup of it. I have tried to mount it in Mandriva 2007 but it fails to mount. I am totally new to linux and am probably doing something wrong so if anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate it. I tried backing it up in windows using norton ghost but as I thought, it didnt even recognize the drive. Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlc Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 (edited) FreeBSD uses UFS2 for a file system. ufs-linux is really old and hasn't been updated for a couple years, plus it is only read.....support http://ufs-linux.sourceforge.net/ Do you have only one pc at home? Is FreeBSD/Linux/Windows all on the same box? If so, FreeBSD can mount fat32/ntfs and you can write to it. http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2000/07/05...BSD_Basics.html Edited December 16, 2006 by jlc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
