How do I mount a JFS floppy in RH Linux 6.1?

How do I mount a JFS floppy in RH Linux 6.1?

Post by Lanc » Fri, 08 Oct 1999 04:00:00



I recently tried to recover some data from an old IBM PowerStation that
was running AIX and has all of its hard drives mounted with the JFS
filesystem.  I formatted some floppies on this machine and copied data to
them.

Now I am wondering how I mount these floppies (which I assume were
formatted with the JFS filesystem) under Red Hat Linux 6.1 (with kernel
2.2.12).  Is there something I can download or update the kernel?

don't know anything about AIX filesystems (although I occasionally use
one) but have you tried mount with -t auto so that it tries to use the
appropriate filesystem.

1. Mounting FAT32 partitions under RH Linux 6.1

Hi!

I'm a newbie to Linux. More at home with Bill's products, I am having a
few problems porting to Linux. Have just installed Red Hat Linux 6.1 on my
system. Am unable to mount my FAT32 partitions. During boot up the
following are displayed:

1.    mount: fs type vfat not supported by kernel.
2.    Finding module dependencies: can't open /lib/modules/2.2.12-
20BOOT/modules.dep

I haven't made any changes to my system. These error messages were
displayed during the post-installation reboot and thereafter. What could
#2 above mean?

I have a PC100 M748LMRT integrated motherboard with an HSP modem. Is it
what you call a Win-Modem? If at all, how do I get it to work under Linux?

Would be grateful if you help me out with these.

Souvik.
