Well, it would be nice to know what you're
really trying to do.
What's the hardware? If the file system is UFS, it's unlikely to be a
good fit for Linux. I'd say "try FreeBSD", but without knowing more
about your software and hardware, it's not clear if that would be any
better. Google suggests that it runs on ARMs. Is that correct?
The hardware is an obscure british platform from back when the ARM was
young. - The Archimedes.
The CPU is the ARM2 or 3 (either work) and the systems have SCSI,
ethernet, and (up to) 16Mb of RAM.

Indeed it does, and ARMlinux will too, soon - Im porting linux 2.5.30 to
the ARM26.

I used NetBSD to create and manipulate on disk
file systems as well as
disk images (see vnconfig(8)) for 4.3BSD-Tahoe (VAX) and 4.4BSD (HP300).
AFAIK there are some minor differences in the FS layout, but it was
similar enough to get the old BSD up to the point where I colud iron
out this differences with fsck.
