The UnixWare 7 VxFS filesystem is used by default. The ext2fs filesystem typically used by Linux systems is not used by the LKP, but you can obtain a driver that enables a read-only mount of an existing ext2fs filesystem from the Skunkware CD. See the Skunkware web site for additional information about Skunkware.
The LKP must be installed under the UnixWare 7 root filesystem. The Linux environment is set up under /linux, which is the root directory for the LKP directory tree. See ``Directory layout''.
Most filesystem management should be performed in UNIX mode using ``The Filesystem Manager interface'' or commands like mkfs(1M), mount(1M), and fsck(1M).
You cannot use Linux versions of commands to create new filesystems or directly modify filesystems. The Linux mount and umount commands can be used to mount and unmount filesystems using Linux syntax and mount points.
You can also can use the UnixWare 7 mount command to mount a filesystem on a Linux mount point, or you can issue an UnixWare 7 mount command from Linux mode.
To use the UnixWare 7 mount command from UNIX mode to mount a CD on a mount point under /linux:
# mount `devattr cdrom1 bdevice` /linux/mnt
To use the UnixWare 7 mount command from Linux mode:
# /unixware/sbin/mount `/unixware/usr/bin/devattr cdrom1 bdevice` /linux/mnt
The Skunkware CD provides a driver that enables a read-only mount of an existing ext2fs filesystem. This might be useful if you have an ext2fs filesystem with Linux applications or data that you would like to access on another partition or disk. See the Skunkware web site for additional information about the Skunkware CD.
