The FreeBSD system sees the drive - ids it as Seagate - gets the right size and names it as "da0". This all shows up in the dmesg. The FreeBSD manuals say to mount drives that are foreign like this as /dev/da1s1e where the s means mdos and the e is a slice of a physical partition. In the /dev directory there are nodes for /dev/da1 but not "/dev/da1s1e". There is a make file for creating nodes, but the make makes guess what? That's right the nodes that are already exist. How do you use mknode to make this inode? What should the major and minor numbers be? It would be alot of help to know what the fstab entry for this dirve should look like. --------------F44A06D45BDCCB368CB8B369 Content-Type: text/x-vcard; charset=us-ascii; name="gsimonoff.vcf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Description: Card for greg simonoff Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="gsimonoff.vcf" begin:vcard n:Simonoff;Gregory tel;work:(510) 286-4659 x-mozilla-html:FALSE org:Calif State Dept of Transportation;Software Development version:2.1 email;internet:gsimonoff@geocities.com title:PE / Electrical Engineer (CA license) adr;quoted-printable:;;111 Grand Avenue =0D=0A;Oakland ;CA;94623; note;quoted-printable:Java, HTML, C++, C=0D=0AUNIX, OS9=0D=0A fn:Gregory Simonoff end:vcard --------------F44A06D45BDCCB368CB8B369-- _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
