I have managed to install 4.4 FreeBSD 2.2.7 (Walnut Creek) on my 4th SCSI-Disk, which is on my second SCSI controller. I modified fbsdboot.exe to load the kernel from a DOS partition and set the root device to major 4, unit 4, slice 0, partition 0. The kernel boots ok, finds the root device and mounts it ro. ... Changing rootdevice to sd4a swapon: adding /devsds41b as swap device Automatic reboot in progress... /dev/rsd4s1a: clean ... ... But when rc wants to remount it rw, the following message appears: ... /dev/sd4s1a on /: Specified device does not match mounted device Filesystem mount failed, startup aborted, specify shell... Also trying to remount it on / manually fails, but mounting it on another mountpoint works... When the system is not cleanly shutdown, after fsck I get the message that the root fs would not be clean, although fsck did not report any errors... What may be wrong??? -- Rainer Keuchel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
