Does anyone know whether I can mount a HP-UX (10.26) disk under FreeBSD?

FreeBSD does not support the partitioning or FS layout for HP/UX,
so you can not mount it locally.  You could mount it via NFS (of
course).

According to the "5.0 way of doing things", you could implement a
"GEOM" module that would be able to deal with locating the first
block of any FS's on the volume, and from there, deal with it with
an FS module.

The actual FS layout for HP/UX FS volumes depends on the specific
version and FS type, but most of that information is documented in
the system header files, if you have them.

NetBSD for that particular hardware can mount it.  I don't know
about NetBSD/i386.  So that would also be a place to start.
