UFS truth today

English Hardware
#1

Dear Everybody!

There is many different information about ufs(2) support of OpenSuse and linux kernel.
For example if I try to mount it on 15.3 (at rescue mode) then I got “this filesystem is backlisted”.
Therefore my question is: today what is the status of ufs support.

Can I mount ufs filesetem?
Can I read files from ufs filesetem?
Can I read larger than 2GB files from ufs filesetem?
Can I write files to ufs filesetem?
Can I write larger than 2GB files to ufs filesetem?

Thanks for any advise.

Hi
There is no support for it, the expectation is the user can remove the blacklist and use of their own volition but won’t accept any bug reports etc…

Refer /etc/modprobe.d/60-blacklist_fs-ufs.conf
