Hi, I am still having trouble installing my 2nd drive. I have FreeBSD 2.1 -stable (as of last week) installed on a 1G IDE. I am trying to add a 4G Seagate Barracuda st15150n as extra drive space. My 1G IDE is dying, so I hope to copy most of its contents to the Barracuda until I get a raplacement for it (hopefully a 2G Barracuda, since the 4G Barracuda is only temporary). Here is the drive info for the Barracuda: -cylinders: 3712 -heads: 21 -sectors: 7,812,500 -tracks: 77,931 -bytes/sector: 512 Here is the error I get when I try to do disklabel -R sd0 /etc/label.sd0 line 22: bad partition name I think it is looking for the "a" partition, when I am trying to specify the entire drive by using the "c" partition. I may be doing this part wrong. Below is my /etc/label.sd0, which I got by typing: disklabel sd0 > /etc/label.sd0 and editing the file: I am trying to install this, but it is not being accepted because of the partition name problem. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance, Dan Baritchi dan@airmail.net -------------------------------------------------------------- # /dev/sd0: type: SCSI disk: st15150n label: flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 100 tracks/cylinder: 21 sectors/cylinder: 2247 cylinders: 3712 sectors/unit: 7812500 rpm: 7200 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # milliseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds drivedata: 0 1 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] c: 7812500 0 unused 1024 8192 16 # (Cyl. 0 - 3711*)
