I am a stupid non UNIX literate I.T. applications manager. I have a PC at home running Free BSD and wish to add another disk to it. I have managed to plug it in and when the machine boots its finds it correctly as wd1. In a step by step mode, how do I get the system to recognize that the disk exists? Then how do I mount the /var/log file system on to the new disk without destroying the primary disk? I realise that this may require a detailed knowledge of UNIX and a little cerebral activity, but would be grateful for any pointers.
