Yes, that's a good reason why both ufs1 and ufs2 don't work.

MacFuse is not yet available for Snow Leopard (10.6).

I've made some trials to understand the tar options and had a big
surprise yesterday: tar seems to have an enormous bug. For example:

tar -c -f etc.tar /etc
tar -r -f etc.tar /home/me/.icewm/
tar -u -f etc.tar /etc

The last command should not modify etc.tar.
But that's not the case.
There seems to be no difference between the -r and -u option.
How on earth is this possible ?
