		Hello Dan and J.,

> FreeBSD has support for ext2 filesystems; add "options EXT2FS" to your

 If you created your ext2 partitions with a recent mke2fs that uses sparse 
superblocks (fe the one that comes with RedHat 6.2) it could be you can't 
mount your ext2 partitions rw. My 4.0release can't, but this could have 
changed recently.
 If your ext2 partitions were created with an older mke2fs than you probably 
have nothing to worry about.

				Bye,

				Leonard.
