So I'm stuck calling it /1 for now. # umount /1 # mv /1 /DOS # mount -t msdos /dev/wd0s1 /DOS Then go into the file /etc/fstab and change "/1" to "/DOS" so it is mounted in the right place when your machine starts up (if the DOS drive is mounted at startup). > Anyway, I still can't seem to install X11R6 or the src files from my DOS > partition. When I stand/install from root and go to load them I get: > > "Error mounting /dev/wd0s1 on /dist: device busy (16)" Again, # umount /1 (Or /DOS if you have done the previous change). /stand/sysinstall does not expect the DOS drive to already be mounted, unmount (umount) it first. -- Crist J.
