I'm hoping you just didn't paste it in. Try "mount -t cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom". > If you know how please tell! > > Next Question: > How do I change the pre-login message? > Someone told me to look in gettytab, but i couldn't figure it out. The message is encoded in the ``:im=:'' string. The gettytab manpage lists the %-sequences you can use. If you prefer, you can put the message in a file. Remove the ``:im=:'' block from /etc/gettytab and replace it with ``:if=/etc/issue:'' , then stick the message in /etc/issue. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
