Has anybody out there ever used the same disk/filesystem on both NS and 
FreeBSD ?
I have a spare HD I want to put in my PC which has both NS 3.3 and 
FreeBSD-stable installed on it and I would like to use the disk when running
either OS so I can have a shared home directory . I know both systems can 
read MS-DOS formatted disk but that is not really an option.
So the solution would probably involve putting a NS ffs on it and 
having FreeBSD mount it. Has this been done ???? Or is it time 
to make my own mods. to FreeBSD ??
