Hello,
I'm about to setup a dual boot of linux + freebsd
(5.2.1-RELEASE) on a 160gb hard disk. I'd really
like linux and freebsd to share (be able to read
and write) the bulk of the disk so that I can work
in either environment freely.
FreeBSD's ext2fs kernel module would seem preferable
over a msdosfs install (yuck...), but SYS-NOTES
labels it as dangerous for even read-only.
Is FreeBSD capable of reliable ext2fs read+write?
If not, is there a filesystem besides msdosfs that
I can share between FreeBSD and Linux?
Thanks!
