Date: Fri, 26 Nov 1999 14:25:46 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) Content-Type: text/plain Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Ok. I'm going to add to my own message, because I've done some digging since I sent the original message. vnconfig is in /usr/sbin/. Which means (I'll assume) that "vnconfig -a" cannot be called before "mount -a" is called. So now my problem becomes, can anyone think of a way to easily mount my vnX devices after vnconfig -a has been called. I can add the appropriate lines to an rc file if I had an idea of how to go about doing this. My current problem is that I have the entries in my /etc/fstab, but I have to leave marked "noauto". If I do not the system will fail to boot with a "Filesystem mount failed, startup aborted" error message. Would there be a downside to copy/moving /usr/sbin/vnconfig to /sbin/vnconfig, and then I could add the appropriate lines to an rc file?
