A couple sentences are a little confusing up there... It doesn't matter where you mount a device. If you want to swap disc 4 and 5 just do this. >/dev/wd1s1e 2000831 1387310 453455 75% /disk5 >/dev/wd3s1e 3795566 1184598 2307323 34% /disk4 Now, if you physically swap the location of the drives on your IDE ports then you need to change the device names. This is just as trivial as changing the mounting locations. >/dev/wd3s1e 2000831 1387310 453455 75% /disk4 >/dev/wd1s1e 3795566 1184598 2307323 34% /disk5 Catchya Later, | UW Mechanical Engineering Jason Wells | http://weber.u.washington.edu/~jcwells/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
