Both Gerd Knorr and Jurgen Philippaerts complain about
problems mounting an ufs filesystem, one for BSD, the
other for Solaris.
The reason is the patch fragment in patch-2.4.19-pre2:
--- linux.orig/fs/ufs/super.c Thu Feb 28 18:24:57 2002
+++ linux/fs/ufs/super.c Wed Feb 27 20:34:30 2002

}
again:
- set_blocksize (sb->s_dev, block_size);
+ if (!set_blocksize (sb->s_dev, block_size)) {
+ printk(KERN_ERR "UFS: failed to set blocksize\n");
+ goto failed;
+ }
+
sb->s_blocksize = block_size;
/*
Indeed, set_blocksize returns 0 when all is well.
Thus, this change will always cause a failure.

[so, this patch fragment must be reverted, or the '!'
must be removed]
