You will need to add the drive physically. You need to choose how the drive will be used: single filesystem or multiple filesystems. What mount points will you use for these file systems. In general you will need to partition the new drive drive, then run newfs on the new partitions to create the file systems. Once the filesystems are created you will need to edit /etc/fstab to set the mounting of these filesystems. I would recommend you reboot to test the setup of the new mounts. -Derek At 07:03 PM 6/1/2006, Adam M wrote: >Yes, I was wondering what the best way was to add a second hard drive to my >existing FreeBSD system, I searched the Handbook, but cannot find it. >_______________________________________________ >freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list >http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions >To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > >-- >This message has been scanned for viruses and >dangerous content by MailScanner, and is >believed to be clean. >MailScanner thanks transtec Computers for their support. > -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
