Buddies,

Below is my /etc/fstab
I have 4 disks in my box, 2 IDE and 2 SCSI...I just added the SCSI disk
and ended up with enough doubts (uncertainities) which I hope someone
can help me with.

I had expected that the new disk would go in as da1-something, because
from my dmesg, this is what I got from dmesg.

Now my concern: All the methods outlined in handbook/disks-adding.html
could not work for me. Well I went via /stand/sysinstall about 5 times
and just could not get things going....I created the partition
(fully dedicated), labelled and got da1s1e and specified the mount point
but the thing wouldn't hear of newfs!!
So what did I do?

newfs _ARGS_ /dev/rda1s1c

My question: why would it not accept /dev/da1s1e ???? Why does it have
to be rda1s1c?? 

If someone can enlighten me...I have nothing on that disk so I can go
over the process again just to be conversant with this chapter..

Thanks
