I'm trying to recreate a behaviour that worked nicely for me in FreeBSD 2.x but I can't seem to get to work with FreeBSD 3.0. I want to dedicate the entire disk to FreeBSD (and I promise never to put anything else on the disk!) but even after picking the "dangerously dedicated" option in sysinstall, I still have to use "/dev/da0s1a" and changing /etc/fstab to use just /dev/da0a produces bad results. (Specifically when rebooting with a dirty root file system.) Should I just abandon my wish to go back to the olden days of /dev/da1a and deal with the DOS partition table and slices?
