Hello, I am new to this situation, so please bare with me. :D Scenario: FreeBSD 4.3R Mylex SCSI/RAID controller w/ x2 Seagate ST318436LW's in RAID1 Controller is removed and is no longer available. Replacement is an Asus Symbios SCSI card which appears to be run at SCSI-3 (40MB/s). Server was shutdown properly, original Mylex card was removed and Asus card was inserted. So I knew the OS would yell at me for a totally different HD controller and will obviously not boot up fully, and is currently stuck at: Mounting root from ufs: /dev/mlxd0s1a No such device 'mlxd' Setrootbyname failed ffs_mountroot: can't find rootup Root mount failed: 6 Mountroot> Now, the pause key is not working on the keyboard, but it appears as though the SCSI card is seeing the drives OK and seems to be named as sym0. But, of course is stuck at what I typed above. So besides what few keystrokes (which I am baffed on, cause I don`t know this part of the OS) at this prompt, any other things I would need to do for the OS to boot up properly and run as if the Mylex card was back in, minus the RAID? :D Thank you for your help in advance. :D Dan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
