The machine is now booting from a third IDE drive, with FreeBSD version 4.2. I'm trying to address two problems: 1) The disk label editor will not allow me to set a mount point. I've obviously left out a step, but I'm not sure what. 2) I can't mount the RAID drives, even though the label editor shows that they have FreeBSD installed on them. I'm trying to mount da0 or some component of it, by saying "mount da0", "mount da0s1a" or some variation thereof. It always says "unknown special file or file system". What should I do, where can I go for more info? Thanks! John To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
