Oddly enough, I only see one: ffs_mountfs: superblock updated Even though mount shows: zippy:~/png#mount /dev/sd0s1a on / (local, soft-updates, writes: sync 105 async 17719) /dev/sd1s1e on /mnt/usr2 (local, soft-updates, writes: sync 2 async 868) *shrug* YMMV - alex To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
