Hi all,

As Warren Block mentioned:

If there are no ada devices in /dev at all, I'd guess too much has been

So I've checked my custom kernel config (based on GENERIC) & indeed made
some changes to the [S]ATA disk section after which I rebuilt & installed
the kernel again.. The difference now with previous was that I *was* able
to boot in single-user mode, mount, label my disk with tunefs, update my
/etc/fstab accordingly & managed to install the world as a final step to my
upgrade..

Problem solved, many thanx for all the assistance..

Regards,
E.
