Lacking a better answer, /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT does say: # Add support for the EXT2FS filesystem of Linux fame. Be a bit # careful with this - the ext2fs code has a tendency to lag behind # changes and not be exercised very much, so mounting read/write could # be dangerous (and even mounting read only could result in panics.) # options EXT2FS So unfortunately that does not solve your problem. It looks like a known issue. Can anybody provide a reference or information on why mounting ext2fs on FreeBSD is so unstable? Seems like it would get used enough to at least not cause panics. That seems like a pretty serious issue.
