| What's particularly strange, it's that the command (/sbin/mount_null) exists, but on executing the following command: gijs@basecamp> sudo mount_null /extended/ /home/gijs/fileserver/ ....I get the following error: mount_null: /home/gijs/fileserver/: Filesystem not supported by kernel Both filesystems are FFS, and it worked really well in 3.6. Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem?
