So what I normally do is mount_msdos /dev/da2s4 /zip (for dos filesystem) Or mount /dev/da2s4 /zipu (for those disks I have ufs filesystems on) I followed some howto from the web but I don't recall where exactly. I even made entries in fstab, just in case I wanted automount... /dev/da2s4 /zip msdos rw,noauto,longnames 0 0 /dev/da2s4 /zipu ufs rw,noauto 0 0 HTH -Wash -- Odhiambo Washington Inter-Connect Ltd., wash@iconnect.co.ke 5th Flr Furaha Plaza Tel: 254 11 222604 Nkrumah Rd., Fax: 254 11 222636 PO Box 83613 MOMBASA, KE.
