I have successfully installed FreeBSD 4.0 STABLE (RELENG_4) onto a SCSI
drive and would like to get the IDE drive to mount for extra storage
space.  I have been trying to use /stand/sysinstall to label the disk and
for newfs settings, but when I try to mount something like /dev/ad0s1e it
complains the the device is not configured.

I have already ran the following commands.

cd /dev
sh MAKEDEV all
sh MAKEDEV ad0 
sh MAKEDEV ad0s1a

Then I run the command...

mount /dev/ad0s1e /export

And the ouput is...

mount: Device not Configured

I have read this page...

http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/disks-adding.html

I have done all that it asks, except use ad0 instead of the outdated wd0
when running these steps.  After trying it a few times to make sure I did
it right and running MAKEDEV a few times to rebuild the dev entries I
still cannout mount the drives.

Is it possible that I should still be using wd0?  What else could be
wrong?  Is there a last step that I am missing?
