It has a promise raid card supporting two drives in a mirrored config. It has two drives on the IDE bus. I had to physically move the motherboard to a different case. In the old case config, the drives were connected to a ATA card to get over the 137g limit and one to the motherboard. I now connected both to the ATA card. The drives were AD1 and AD9. Now they are AD9 and AD11. I can not mount the AD11. I have done a fdisk to make sure it is on ad11: 03 DING! /etc > fdisk /dev/ad11 ******* Working on device /dev/ad11 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=3D24792 heads=3D255 sectors/track=3D63 (16065 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=3D24792 heads=3D255 sectors/track=3D63 (16065 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 1 is: sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 63, size 398283417 (194474 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1; end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63 The data for partition 2 is: The data for partition 3 is: The data for partition 4 is: I can=92t fsck /dev/ad11s1 nor mount it. Are there limitations to the = IDE devices? Ideas? Thanks, dave --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
