The strange thing is I can boot and install FreeBSD from the CD, but once the system's up - no chance of mounting it. Which is a pity coz it means I can't use /stand/sysinstall : ( I had a look at my /etc/fstab, it looks ok to me, i.e. it fits with the stuff in the "The Complete FreeBSD" book. Do I need to do something special to get it going? Build a kernel or something? Regards Eddie ===== -- consume - be silent - die __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
