This is a weird problem that I can't figure out. BTW, the 2 Mavericks are intentionally not being mounted. We upgraded to a larger HD, but I left the old drives in the box long enough to determine that all necessary user data has been cp'd to the new drive. One other thing I don't understand. The Adaptec 2842 (? w/floppy) SCSI card is actually a VLB card, but it's being probed as eisa. It that correct? Thanks for your help. - - burton - - --------- (fwd) I just completed a new install of 2.2.5-R on to a 'virgin' HD at work. I'm having a strange problem I don't understand. If I try to mount a cdrom with mount /cdrom (as root) I get the following error: root@thingie(101)# mount /cdrom cd9660: /dev/cd0a: Device not configured root@thingie(102)# cat /etc/fstab # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# /dev/sd0s1b none swap sw 0 0 /dev/sd0a / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/sd0s1f /usr ufs rw 2 2 /dev/sd0s1e /var ufs rw 2 2 proc /proc procfs rw 0 0 /dev/cd0a /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 root@thingie(103)# If I try mounting the *same* cdrom with mount_cd9660 /dev/cd0a or mount -t cd9660 /dev/cd0a it works. I have included a copy of my /etc/fstab which has not been modified since the install. Any ideas? Here's the output from dmesg; Copyright (c) 1992-1997 FreeBSD Inc.
