I think you should just be able to mount it normally with mount or in /etc/fstab as SysV filesystem once you recompile your kernel.

When you get to "System V and Coherent filesystem support", answer yes.

In fdisk, type 63 comes up as "GNU HURD and SysV", so I think if you compile that support into the kernel you should be good to go.

You used to be able to just mount SysV filesystems, but support for that isn't included in stock kernels anymore a/o the 2.4 or 2.6 kernels, AFAIK.

YMMV, but I'm interested to know if that works coz I don't have any old UNIX disks laying around anymore, having migrated everything ages ago and dispersing with the hardware, so lemme know how it goes k?

Kindest regards,

Bradley

NAME
partx - telling the kernel about presence and numbering of on-disk partitions. SYNOPSIS
partx [-a|-d|-l] [--type TYPE] [--nr M-N] [partition] disk DESCRIPTION
Given a block device ( disk ) and a partition table type , try to parse the partition table, and list the contents. Optionally add or remove partitions. This is not an fdisk - adding and removing partitions is not a change of the disk, but just telling the kernel about presence and numbering of on-disk partitions. OPTIONS
-a add specified partitions or read disk and add all partitions -d delete specified or all partitions -l list partitions. Note that the all numbers are in 512-byte sectors. --type TYPE Specify the partition type -- dos, bsd, solaris, unixware or gpt. --nr M-N Specify the range of partitions (e.g --nr 2-4). SEE ALSO
addpart(8), delpart(8), fdisk(8), parted(8), partprobe(8) AVAILABILITY
The partx command is part of the util-linux-ng package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux-ng/. 11 Jan 2007 PARTX(8)
