I am getting an error as follows - $ mount /dev/wd3s1a /mnt mount: Operation not permitted $ su Password: chip# mount /dev/wd3s1a /mnt mount: Operation not permitted chip# I tried this on all the slices just for kicks and none worked, then I even made more slices for wd3s2a and wd3s3 just in case and of course none of those worked either. This was never so difficult before I reinstalled fbsd last weekend, in fact, that second bsd drive would auto-mount from the fstab, just as the winblows drive does now. I headin' for bed. Whatever you suggest I'll try in the morning. Thanks and goodnite -- Chip www.wiegand.org ***** Visit my web site - Alternative Operating Systems - MS Windows isn't the only OS in town.
