Subject:   trouble mounting NetBSD file system
Message-ID:  <3F290C30@zathras>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I can't seem to mount one of my two NetBSD file systems.  One mounts fine, the 
other is not 'seen' by FreeBSD.

I have two disks.  The first disk has two NetBSD file systems (/ and /disk) 
and one swap area.    All three live in BIOS partition #4.

The second disk has one FreeBSD file system (/) and one swap area.  These live 
in BIOS partition #1.

I boot to FreeBSD-5.1 and the kernel sees my disks as ad0 (my first disk) and 
ad1(my second disk).  In /dev I see only two ad0* devices, ad0 and ad0s4.  I 
suppose ad0s4 corresponds to the #4 BIOS parition of my first disk.  I can 
mount this just fine; it looks like NetBSD's / (NetBSD calls it wd0a).

How can I see/mount the other NetBSD file system (/disk)?  NetBSD calls this 
one wd0e.

Just in case it would be useful, I've pasted below the disklabel of my first 
disk (as reported by NetBSD).

Thanks,
Nick
