Hi all
How can I mount a FreeBSD Slice in Linux? I am using a dual boot of FreeBSD 5.2 and Debian3.0r3. All the OSs' have default filesystems.
Thanks in Advance

Its just same like in Debian. Just the device name convention is different. And remember, the fstab file is highly tab sensitive. it will not accept any stray tabs.

For linux to be capable of mounting BSD slices, one needs to compile linux kernel with UFS and BSD slices support.
Then you can mount the slices, mount with -t ufs and specify the UFS slice via options parameter.
