So far so good. Unfortunately, both mount and fsck tell me the same blatant lie, that the device does not exist: > > # fsck -y /dev/ada1d > Can't open /dev/ada1d: No such file or directory > > # mount /dev/ada1d /mnt > mount: /dev/ada1d: No such file or directory Very curious about this as well - I have a stack of a few dozen drives that I’m wiping before they go to recycling and I’ve hit a number where I get this same error. I’ve been having a hard time keeping up with what’s new in 11.x and 12.x without following all the mailing lists. I feel like there’s some cool new stuff, but no idea where it’s documented these days (I’m on about 20 years or so of using FreeBSD). Charles > > Any suggestions? Thank you!
