mount ext2fs

[Robert Storey]

If you need fsck for ext2, you could just book a Knoppix (or maybe Slackware)
live CD. No need to install Linux, you should be able to run fsck from the CD,
and that will clear the ext2 partition.

I will also confirm what the other poster said, the correct syntax for mounting
the partition should be:

  mount_ext2fs /dev/as2s2 /data2

Assuming of course that /dev/ad2s2 is the correct partition, and that /data2
actually exists. Using "mount -t ext2fs" has never worked for me under FreeBSD,
though it is the correct syntax under Linux.

Robert
