fails: mount -t ufs -o ro,ufstype ufs2 /dev/sdc2 /mnt

I need to resave some old files originally created under freebsd on a byegone pc, into some fs that is more generic. Right now adding a freebsd install to the laptop I have available would not be practical.

Back in the day when I was using slackware 14.x, this worked.

Code:mount -t ufs -o ro,ufstype=ufs2 /dev/sdc2 /mntbut now using slackware 64 15.0 , this error happens instead.

Code:mount: /mnt: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc2,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error.This is the (partial) output of "lsmod"

Code:Module Size Used by
fuse 159744 1
ufs 94208 0This is happening on every drive and partition I have tried.

If I am trying to mount ufs partitions in an outdated way, please tell me the correct current way.
