  Options are specified with a -o flag followed by a comma-separated string of options. See the mount(8) man page for possible options and their meanings.

### HISTORY

The mount_ext2fs utility first appeared in FreeBSD2.2.

### BUGS

Some EXT2FS-specific options, features or file flags are not supported.

Because of EXT2FS limitations, an EXT2FS file system can't be used with any UID or GID greater than 65535.
