Figure out which drive is your Windows drive, and then issue "mount_msdos /dev/ad0c /mnt", replacing /dev/ad0c with the appropriate drive name. Similarly, for a CD-ROM drive, use "mount_cd9660 /dev/cd0c /mnt". Note that only one drive can be mounted on /mnt at one time. I would suggest creating a /cdrom directory and using that instead of /mnt when mounting your CD-ROM, and to create a /windows directory and use that for mounting the Windows drive. -- Matt Emmerton To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
