Hello,

I am not sure if this message got through the first time... If it did,
then I'm sorry for the repost... :


>Hi,

>I am _still_ struggling with this upgrade...

>I went to http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/diskformat/ and neither of

>Can't mount /dev/wd1e on /usr1: Invalid argument

>Then I did it commandline, and during the newfs, it died with this:

>write error:5309072
>wtfs: Input/Output error

Thanks again,

Roman
