(Migrating may a slightly strong description..._starting over with_ is more apt description) Two physical disks exist - ad0, ad1. I installed the system, on ad0, and was up and running with the system within two hours. For the last two days I have been pondering (...reading documentation, man pages) how to mount the second set of partitions as file systems without wacking the data on these drives. I am a complete loss as to how to proceed. Here's the output from fdisk ad1 The data for partition 1 is: sysid 5,(Extended DOS) start 63, size 15807897 (7718 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1; end: cyl 983/ head 254/ sector 63 The data for partition 2 is: sysid 131,(Linux filesystem) start 15807960, size 24065370 (11750 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 984/ head 0/ sector 1; end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63 - Joe ps. my first post of this message seems to have gone into the ether...
