Subject: Moving FreeBSD from Slave to Master (Mounting Problem)

I currently have 2 harddrives. My slave ad1s1a (freeBSD) and my master
ad0??? (windows).

But when I remove the windows hardrive and turn my freeBSD into master I ge=
t
an error.

Manual root filesystem specification:
  <fstype>:<device>  Mount <device> using filesystem <fstype>
=09=09       eg. ufs:da0s1a
  ?=09=09     List valid disk boot devices
  <empty line>=09     Abort manual input

mountroot>

Do I have to mount each file system listed below?
(slave)

/dev/ad1s1a on / (ufs,local)
/dev/ad1s1f on /tmp (ufs,local,soft-updates)
/dev/ad1s1g on /usr (usr (ufs,local, with quotas, soft-updates)
/dev/ad1s1e on /var (ufs, local, soft-updates)
procfs on /proc (proofs,local)

    with

/dev/ad0s0a on / (ufs,local)
/dev/ad0s0f on /tmp (ufs,local,soft-updates)
/dev/ad0s0g on /usr (usr (ufs,local, with quotas, soft-updates)
/dev/ad0s0e on /var (ufs, local, soft-updates)
procfs on /proc (proofs,local)

And are there going to be any problems with my kernel? Do I have to
recompile?

And procfs file system? Where is this stored? Ram?

************************************************

Before removing the Win HD, edit your /etc/fstab file 
to replace /dev/ad1** with /dev/ad0** in the 
appropriate spots.

Then shut down, remove the Win drive, turn the FreeBSD 
drive into the master, and boot up.

Should work, unless I'm forgetting something.

HTH,

Jud
