Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm trying to re-arrange a secondary SCSI disk so that instead of one big file system, it has a swap partition as well. Unfortunately in nearly every menu in sysinstall, it says 'No disks found!' I'm totally at a loss as to why this is happening. I assume there's a missing node in /dev but 'disklabel' has no trouble seeing the drive: root ~> disklabel da1 # /dev/rda1c: ... 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] c: 8899737 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 844*) e: 8899737 0 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 # (Cyl. 0 - 844*) Here are all the da1 devices in /dev: root ~> ls /dev/*da1* /dev/da1 /dev/da1f /dev/da1s4 /dev/rda1e /dev/rda1s3 /dev/da1a /dev/da1g /dev/rda1 /dev/rda1f /dev/rda1s4 /dev/da1b /dev/da1h /dev/rda1a /dev/rda1g /dev/da1c /dev/da1s1 /dev/rda1b /dev/rda1h /dev/da1d /dev/da1s2 /dev/rda1c /dev/rda1s1 /dev/da1e /dev/da1s3 /dev/rda1d /dev/rda1s2 I'm open to all suggestions.
