Dear my friends....
I Installed 3 os-es in one harddisk, namely: solaris, suse10.2 and puppylinux.
I mainly work with SuSE that's why my SuSE should also be able to read/write on the puppy'es and the solaris partitions.
reading/writing onto the puppy'es partition by my beloved SuSE has no problem absolutely. But my SuSE can not read/write on the solaris'es partition.
Solaris is on hda1 puppy is on hda2 and the SuSE is on hda3
both of them are primary partitions.
the puppy'es and the SuSE use ext2 partition. and the solaris use default as it installed namely ext3.
Why do you think, that solaris is using ext3 as filesystem ? AFAIK solaris uses some variant of ufs and you also need an ufstype parameter for the exact subtype of ufs ( see man mount) .
I think Solaris uses ZFS. There is a project to make ZFS filesystems available under Linux via fuse, but I don't think it's particularly mature at the moment.
Solaris by default still uses UFS. The issue is that Solaris UFS has the same partition id as Linux swap space which is 83 I believe. This would make Linux by default see a Solaris partition as swap space. :) If one wants to mount it then UFS support must be loaded into the Linux kernel and the FS specified when mounting it. That's about all that need be taken into account. -- "We should forgive our enemies. But not before they are hanged."
