Calum:
hello, no big deal, i'm going to ask the internet anyway but do you happen to know how i'd add my new FreeBSD system to GRUB from red hat?

thanks in advance. oh yes, how do i bloody mount the red hat partition (ext3) from freeBSD and how do i mount the FreeBSD partition (ufs) in redhat. neither seem to want to work.  :(

Pantso:
From what I know GRUB supports the folowing filesystems: ext2, ext3, reiser FS, jfs, xfs, minix and the DOS FAT FS, but not the Unix File System (UFS). Does anyone have more info?

I'll get back to you later for your second question. I'll have to check some things out first.

KernelPanic:
this link should help with the GRUB bit.

beltorak0:
do you have the UFS compiled into your RH kernel?  how about ext2/3 in your BSD kernel?  I don't think that either is the default; but you can try to "modprobe -v ufs" and see if that helps in redhat -- it might be compiled as a module... or if you have the configure file laying about (perhaps in /boot) you can search for the ufs file system config option to know for sure....

Calum:
if they're not the default, then i don't have them.
i have never recompiled my kernel successfully except once when i was handheld by somebody who knew what they were doing.

i will take your advice though, thank you both very much!

looks like this site has still got some great posters who post good info. i think this forum might come back from the dead yet!
