Hello.... When I installed freebsd I created a 70M dos partition from which to install. I've just tried to change it over to freebsd, hoping that I could mount it as /usr2 or something (is it possible to 'tack' it on to my existing /usr?). I used sysinstall/configure to delete the dos partition, create a freebsd partition, and label it (the dos/now freebsd partition is wd0s1 and the old freebsd is wd0s2). Now at the boot prompt it says it can't find the kernel. I can access all the original freebsd file systems using the fixit disk so I know I didn't wipe them out. Does anyone know what I need to do to get the booter to see the kernel (reconfigure /dev, rebuild kernel, ...?). Thanks for your help, Gerard Giamberdine.
