Hi all,

First up, thanks for the handbook and instructions on making a new
kernel. I've just made my first one, and it seems good to me - with just
one exception.

My /etc/fstab previously had an entry I'd added, thus:

/dev/ad3s1e      /backups        ufs     rw,noatime      1 1

This is nothing special, I hope. I've got a hard drive I use for backups
connected to the secondary IDE bus. Unfortunately, it won't mount under
my new kernel (fine on the old one). I get this:

su-2.04# mount /dev/ad3s1e /backups/
mount: Device not configured

This seems strange to me, and I would be really grateful for any advice. All
I have so far is a suspicion that my /sys/i386/conf/kernelconfig file
(actually called SUNRISE) doesn't define that drive, but I am none the
wiser as to fixing it.

Happy New Year, by the way. :-)

Cheers
Michael Wells
