I'm in the process of installing a second HD which will, hopefully, be the replacement for the one I believe is flaky. I've installed the second drive. I used dd to copy over to each partition (Yes, I know this is not the right way to do that ... I'll be using dump or tar next time. Thanks to Subhro for pointing that out...) However ... Now I have the following situation: da2 is the "bad" disc that I am still using. da0 is going to be the new disc. Somehow, I have managed to replace da2s1a with da0s1a as the / partition: /dev/da0s1a on / (ufs, local) devfs on /dev (devfs, local) /dev/da2s1e on /tmp (ufs, local, soft-updates) /dev/da2s1f on /usr (ufs, NFS exported, local, soft-updates) /dev/da2s1d on /var (ufs, local, soft-updates) procfs on /proc (procfs, local) /dev/ad0 on /usr/share/archive (ufs, NFS exported, local) I'm not sure how to put it back. My fstab is: # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# /dev/da2s1b none swap sw 0 0 /dev/da2s1a / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/da2s1e /tmp ufs rw 2 2 /dev/da2s1f /usr ufs rw 2 2 /dev/da2s1d /var ufs rw 2 2 /dev/acd0 /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 /dev/acd1 /dvdram ufs rw,noauto 0 0 proc /proc procfs rw 0 0 /dev/ad0 /usr/share/archive ufs rw 0 0 I'm guessing I need to configure the boot loader .... but I'm a little unclear on how I do that.
