11 UFS is a file system widely used in different operating systems.
12 The problem are differences among implementations. Features of
13 some implementations are undocumented, so its hard to recognize
14 type of ufs automatically. That's why user must specify type of
15 ufs manually by mount option ufstype. Possible values are:
16
17 old old format of ufs
18 default value, supported as read-only
19
20 44bsd used in FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD
21 supported as read-write
22
23 ufs2 used in FreeBSD 5.x
24 supported as read-only
25
26 5xbsd synonym for ufs2
27
28 sun used in SunOS (Solaris)
29 supported as read-write
30
31 sunx86 used in SunOS for Intel (Solarisx86)

34 hp used in HP-UX
