I tried to use it this morning. I supped current last night.
I added a line in /etc/fstab
devfs /dev devfs rw 1 1
after
/dev/sd1a / ufs rw 1 1
/dev/sd1s1b none swap sw
The machine failed to mount my partitions. It even says so.
If I mount on /devfs, the devfs mounts fine and the dev entries cited below
are seen. What's up?
This is my current fstab without the devfs entry.
/dev/sd1a / ufs rw 1 1
/dev/sd1s1b none swap sw
/dev/sd1s1e /tmp ufs rw 1 2
/dev/sd1s1d /var ufs rw 1 2
/dev/sd1s1f /usr ufs rw 1 2
/dev/sd1s1g /usr/src ufs rw 1 2
/dev/sd1s1h /omni ufs rw 1 2
/dev/sd0s2 /dos/c msdos rw 1 2
/dev/sd0s5 /dos/d msdos rw 1 2
/dev/sd0s6 /dos/e msdos rw 1 2
/dev/sd0s7 /dos/f msdos rw 1 2
/dev/cd0a /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 1 2
/dev/cd1a /cdrom1 cd9660 ro,noauto 1 2
proc /proc procfs rw 1 2
Relevant entries in /devfs
