mounting OpenBSD partitions in FreeBSD & vice-versa

[Michael Lucas <mwlucas@blackhelicopters.org>]

Hello,

I have OpenBSD 3.1 at the beginning of a disk, and FreeBSD-current at
the end.

FreeBSD can read the disklabel on the OpenBSD slice, but fails to
mount:

pedicular~;mount /dev/ad0s1e /mnt
mount: /dev/ad0s1e on /mnt: incorrect super block
pedicular~;

OpenBSD can mount the FreeBSD root partition, but doesn't seem to find
my other FreeBSD partitions.  The disklabels bear this out -- OpenBSD
sees my FreeBSD slice as a single large partition.

In my Google searches, I see a couple references saying "don't do
this."  Is this still the case?  I must admit, I find it somewhat odd
that we can mount Linux partitions more easily than other BSDs.

I'd like to be able to transfer information from one OS to the other
easily.  Any suggestions?

Thanks,
==ml
