First off: goofing from my side - I forgot to configure wd1 on controller wdc0 drive 1. Shame on me. After fixing that and configuring a kernel with root on wd1a I still could not mount /dev/ws1s1e and swap on /dev/ws1s1b (sorry, I cannot keep these slice device names in memory but you know what I mean). BTW, the /etc/fstab with the slice entries for drive 0 worked fine for root device wd0a (when the disk was master IDE) but just changing the 0 into a 1 in /etc/fstab didn't work. It looks like the slice code has some problems when root device is not drive 0. I configured the drive all for FreeBSD BTW. After I changed the fstab entries to /dev/wd1a /, /dev/wd1b swap and /dev/wd1e /usr it work correctly. --Chris Christoph P. U.
