I would like to be able to copy some files from myself in Linux to myself in FreeBSD. I assume that this is possible. Can I read Linux files on my first hard drive from FreeBSD? And, assuming that this is possible, how can I do it? Pointers to relevant FMs would be most welcome. [I thought that this would be a matter of mounting the Linux file system, but I didn't see how to do that or how to call up the Linux partition. It does not appear in the fstab.] Copying files to another medium and them reading them to FreeBSD or emailing the files to myself seem inefficient and/or expensive.... Thanks, everybody.
