I thought that I could automate the process further by mounting /c at boot-up time, so I added this to fstab: # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# /dev/ad1s1 /c ntfs rw 1 0 That doesn't work. What is wrong there? Question 2) I know that it is possible to copy files from /c to my freebsd drive, but is it possible to do that in reverse? TIA... Rem
