I even went as far as editing loader.conf and then changing my /etc/fstab file to point to da1, what i ended up with was that the root mounted and /var mounted but /usr got a message saying something about cannot stat /dev/da1s1f.... filesystem inconsistancy, run fsck manually. anyone have any ideas? i am not on list, please CC me ---------------------------------- E-Mail: vagner@vagner.com Date: 18-Jun-99 Time: 13:46:31 Every journalist has a novel in him, which is an excellent place for it.
