Yanjun Wu,

This is likely a bug in the FreeBSD version used to produce the 6.0-SEBSD 
snapshot, which dates from late last year.  I'm in the process of updating 
the SEBSD branch to the FreeBSD 6.x snapshot from May of this year that is 
the base revision for the TrustedBSD MAC branch.  I'll finish the first 
cut integration today, but it will probably take a few days to settle out. 
In the mean time, the best work-around with the SEBSD snapshot is probably 
to use FAT for shared data between FreeBSD and Linux installs.  I'll send 
out e-mail once the integration is complete.

Thanks,

Robert N M Watson
