Hi, I'm running 2.2-stable (ctm#670 - pre Mike's partition changes) and am having a boot problem. I'm getting the following message when the system tries to mountall, which stops the system from getting to multiuser: /dev/sd1a on /: specified device does not match mounted device I used to have the following disk setup using Booteasy to switch between the OSs: Win95 (IDE, 0x80) FreeBSD(SCSI id=1, 0x81) FreeBSD(SCSI id=2) ... I dropped Win95 and switched to NT 4.0 (SCSI) using the NT bootloader (configured it using the 'bootpart' PD utility): NT 4.0 (SCSI id=0, 0x80) FreeBSD(SCSI id=1, 0x81) FreeBSD (SCSI id=2) ... Removed the IDE disk. I could boot FreeBSD fine (though I would get the message "Can't find file kernel.config" which I don't recall seeing before). Everything was OK until I rebuilt the kernel (I removed my noname sound card which wasn't working). Once I rebuilt I started getting the above 'does not match mounted device' error. I could boot OK if I selected 'kernel.old' or flags '-r' (never quite understood what this does). The only thing to add is that I have the disks wired down in the kernel config file: # Base scsi support: 'scbus', 'sd' (disc), 'st' (tape), 'cd' (cdrom) controller scbus0 at ncr0 device sd0 device st0 device cd0 disk sd1 at scbus0 target 1 unit 0 disk sd2 at scbus0 target 2 unit 0 disk sd3 at scbus0 target 3 unit 0 If anyone knows the answer (or even better would spend a few minutes educating me on the details of why I'm having this problem) I would appreciate it.
