I get a fatal page fault in ufs_ihashget when the swapper tries to mount /dev/wds02a (yup, that's right, and I don't know where it gets it from). It's before the swap partition gets mounted, so I don't have a dump. I wrote down a trace, but I'm assuming that we don't need that level of detail, so I won't type it in unless somebody wants it. Since Mike Smith sent some information about changing /etc/fstab round this morning, I changed my fstab entry from /dev/wd0a / ufs rw 1 1 to /dev/wd0s1a / ufs rw 1 1 My disk is (it turns out) not dedicated (can we get rid of that word "dangerously", please?), so it should require the new version. Here's the fdisk output: === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp1) /home/grog 4 -> fdisk wd0 ******* Working on device /dev/rwd0 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=2485 heads=16 sectors/track=63 (1008 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=2485 heads=16 sectors/track=63 (1008 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 2504817 (1223 Meg), flag 80 beg: cyl 0/ sector 1/ head 1; end: cyl 1023/ sector 63/ head 15 The data for partition 2 is: The data for partition 3 is: The data for partition 4 is: This doesn't seem to be problem, though: it doesn't work either way. The old kernel only works with wd0a, and the new kernel doesn't work with either fstab entry.
