Subject: UFS filesystem

Hi.

I'd like to use linux to create a UFS filesystem, but cant find the
utilities to go along with the kernel module.

Documentation/filesystems/ufs.txt doesnt have any clues.

I need it so I can resurrect a RISCiX machine.

I think it is not ported to linux... or is it ?

I have just found this, but is BSD-ish and does not build on Linux:

http://www.xinetd.org/pub/darwin/linux/newfs.ufs.tar.gz

Will dig a little more...
