Reply-To: robert@steffi.mnsinc.com Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Hi, whenver I install it makes the wrong entries in fstab and I think that's wrong. I have... Primary DOS Primary NeXTSTEP Primary FreeBSD / /swap /var /usr Somebody has just told me that / is seen as sd0a but as far as I'm concerned that's the not the case. Even though the BSD compabitility is suppose to see /dev/sd0a as the first BSD filesystem it finds right? Well I cannot refer to that device as /dev/sd0a and I don't think I really care too much about that. Anyway, in fstab it puts /dev/sd0a as my / filesystem and at boot time I always have to mount /dev/sd0c over / then mount /usr so I can get the tools needed to edit fstab and write fstab and reboot. -- "For I am Costanza, lord of the Idiots" (PGP key: send email with Subject: request pgp key)
