The easiest way to do it is by just using /stand/sysinstall. Use the partition editor to add the second BSD partition, then use the label editor to setup the partitions you want. Then, make sure the partition and where you want to mount it is included in /etc/fstab; I believe /stand/sysinstall takes care of that automatically. Then, all you have to do is issue a mount command. Assuming you're mounting the extra space as /extra_space, just do: mount /extra_space > How to mount floppy drive and CD-ROM? For a CD, type: cd / mkdir cdrom mount -t cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom For a floppy, the device should be /dev/fd0.1440 (for a 1.44 meg floppy) So: cd / mkdir floppy mount -t msdos /dev/fd0.1440 /floppy for a MSDOS floppy. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* | FreeBSD; the way computers were meant to be | * "The only reason I'm burning my candle at both ends, is * | that I haven't figured out how to light the middle yet."| * fullermd@futuresouth.com :-} MAtthew Fuller * | http://keystone.westminster.edu/~fullermd | *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
