I feel like I'm being a pest to you now, 'cus this > is taking so long to figure out. Sorry. Honestly you are starting to annoy me, I explained that you'll want to mount partitions shown from the disklabel command, your disklabel showed this: > chip# disklabel wd3s1 > # /dev/rwd3s1: > type: ESDI > disk: wd1s1 > label: > flags: > bytes/sector: 512 > sectors/track: 63 > tracks/cylinder: 192 > sectors/cylinder: 12096 > cylinders: 340 > sectors/unit: 4124673 > rpm: 3600 > interleave: 1 > trackskew: 0 > cylinderskew: 0 > headswitch: 0 # milliseconds > track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds > drivedata: 0 > > 8 partitions: > # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] > a: 204800 0 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 # (Cyl. 0 - 16*) > b: 262144 204800 swap # (Cyl. 16*- 38*) > c: 4124673 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 340*) > e: 3657729 466944 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 # (Cyl. 38*- 340*) and I said: > then do this: > > disklabel wd3sX > > where 'X' is the number you got above.. then take the letter of the > partition... a,e,f or g and just do this: > > mount /dev/wd3sXx > > where 'x' is the letter of the partition. > Instead of following my directions you proceeded to attempt to mount anything remotely resembling wd3s1_anything_ like some sysadmin in heat. Now take a breath and make a new directory: mkdir /mnt2 and try to mount one of the partitions listed above. If it doesn't work show me the output of the 'mount' command like this: 'mount' Make sure you are root. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."
