When I tried the commands you gave above I get the same error. Also if I try '-t ext3fs' I get the same error. However, with '-t ext2fs', everything works as expected. This test, and the fact that there is no reference to ext3 in "man mount", leads me to believe that ext3 is *not* supported in debian-kfreebsd. You should be able to mount the filesystems as ext2, but you will lose the journalling capabilities of ext3. Cheers, Tom -- Do nothing unless you must, and when you must act -- hesitate.
