Hi,
I just installed a 2nd hd and ran sysinstall, got it partitioned and the file
system set up properly. When I try to mount it (as root)I get the following
message: 
chip# mount /dev/wdc3 /home/2nddrive
mount: No such file or directory                (** yes there is **)
chip# mount
/dev/wd1s1a on / (local, writes: sync 36 async 155)
/dev/wd1s1f on /usr (local, writes: sync 144 async 444)
procfs on /proc (local) 

So then I try it a little differantly:
chip# mount /dev/wd3 /home/2nddrive
mount: /dev/wd3 on /usr/home/2nddrive: incorrect super block

When I run disklabel I get the following response:
chip# disklabel wd3
# /dev/rwd3c:

disk: wd3s1
label:

After this response I tried the following:
chip# mount /dev/wd3s1 /home/2nddrive
mount: /dev/wd3s1 on /usr/home/2nddrive: incorrect super block  

I also ran newfs /dev/wd3s1 and got the following messages:
chip# newfs /dev/wd3s1
newfs: /dev/wd3s1: not a character-special device

 3342368, 3407904, 3473440, 3538976, 3604512, 3670048,     

I'm not sure if I needed to run that command, but did it anyway.

Now, I made the directory '2nddrive' inside the directory /home, so it looks
like this - /home/2nddrive, and I have also tried using /mnt/2nddrive, with the
same results. Why does the 2nd line above show /usr/home/2nddrive?

Why can't I mount this drive? It's 100% fbsd partitioned
