[-- Attachment #1 --] * Kruppa, Peter Ulrich <root@pukruppa.de> [20010323 08:27]: writing on the subject 'mounting bsd-partitions' Kruppa,> I am running two FreeBSD's : Kruppa,> old Release on: new Release on: Kruppa,> /dev/ad0s2 /dev/ad1s4 Kruppa,> Kruppa,> Let us say, I have booted into my new Release and I would like to mount Kruppa,> the old Release's /usr partition. Then Kruppa,> # mount /dev/ad0s2d /mnt Kruppa,> will be replied by Kruppa,> mount: /dev/ad0s2d no such file or directory. Kruppa,> (the same thing will happen with ad0s1a or any other letter) Kruppa,> Kruppa,> All I can do is Kruppa,> # mount /dev/ad0s2 /mnt Kruppa,> which will mount the old release's root partition. Kruppa,> Kruppa,> How can I make the other partitions visible?. Since you know them by slice names, why not try mounting then individually mount /dev/ad0s2a on /mnt mount /dev/ad0s2f on /mnt/usr mount /dev/ad0s2e on /mnt/var Something along those lines but I have to ask why you wanna make them visible anyway? -Wash -- Odhiambo Washington Inter-Connect Ltd., wash@iconnect.co.ke 5th Flr Furaha Plaza Tel: 254 11 222604 Nkrumah Rd., Fax: 254 11 222636 PO Box 83613 MOMBASA, KE.
