Hallo everybody!

I have made som patch for ufs. You can download the patch or the sources
at http://www.ms.mff.cuni.cz/~dpir3257/ufs/. In this patch a have catch
some bugs, written rw suport for 44bsd-ufs and ro support for
nextstep-ufs.

The main change is that kernel in current sources tries to detect type of
ufs (sun, next, bsd) automatically. My problem was that it wasn't able to
detect sun-ufs (instead sun-ufs it detected old-ufs). I don't know
specifications of various types of ufs, so I decided to resolve this
problem by another way. In my patch user can specify the type of ufs by
mount option "ufstype". Possible values are "sun", "44bsd", "old",
"next", the default value is "old" (old is ro). I think could be more
safely.

Thank you for testing and for comments.

Daniel
