Hi, I am _still_ struggling with this upgrade... I went to http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/diskformat/ and neither of the /stand/sysinstall methods (dedicated and not) worked. Nor did I get any telling error messages, all it said was: Can't mount /dev/wd1e on /usr1: Invalid argument Then I did it commandline, and during the newfs, it died with this: wd1c: hard error writing fsbn 5309072 of 5309072-5309087 (wd1 bn 5309072; cn 5618 tn 0 sn 62)wd1: status 51<rdy,seekdone,err> error 4<abort> write error:5309072 wtfs: Input/Output error So, my question is: is this a hardware problem? The disk is WD Caviar (IDE) 4.3G 8912 cyl 15 heads. Could it be anything else except that the disk is defective (I would like to make absolute sure before I exchange it) Thanks again, Roman -- _________________________________________ | Roman Katsnelson | | UNIX Network Engineer | _ | Graphnet, Inc. | _ / )|_________________________________________|( \ / / | "Consistency is the hobgoblin of | \ \ _( (_ | small minds. | _) )_ (((\ \>|_/-) -- Ralph Waldo Emerson (-\_|</ /))) (\\\\ \_/ /___________________________________\ \_/ ////) \ / Email: romank@graphnet.com \ / \ _/ Member of http://www.wait.org \_ / ////// ==================================== \\\\\\ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
