Try loading it as a module; "kldload ext2fs".
It seems not to be that easy :( # kldload ext2fs kldload: can't load ext2fs: No such file or directory Where is ext2fs.ko supposed to have come from? A search for ext2fs in the Handbook found nothing applicable, and I have already built and installed /usr/ports/sysutils/e2fsprogs. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
