Is r/w to a UFS partition using 'guestmount' still an impossibility?
From everything I've found, it seems to be something that is not
possible at the moment. I was just wondering if that has changed or if
there are plans to change that?
Here is the issue I'm experiencing:
~# guestmount --rw -a ${disk_path}/${disk_name} -m /dev/sda4
/tmp/freebsd-master
libguestfs: error: mount_options: /dev/vda4 on /: mount: wrong fs type,
bad option, bad superblock on /dev/vda4,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
guestmount: '/dev/sda4' could not be mounted. Did you mean one of
these?
/dev/sda4 (ufs)
I have the output from '-- guestmount --rw -a ${disk_path}/${disk_name}
--trace --verbose -m /dev/sda4 /tmp/freebsd-master' here:

This appears to be a similar problem to this one, in which I gathered
that r/w to ufs is not possible:

I get the feeling that this is something I'd need to roll my own kernel
for, or perhaps just the module? If anyone could point me in the right
direction, that'd be awesome. My apologies for the noise if this is the
wrong list for this type of question.
