In your case it may be related to the mapping problem of device numbers between FreeBSD and Linux. Linux only has 16 bit device numbers (8 bit major; 8 bit minor). We have 32 bit device numbers (8 bit major; 24 bit minor). This problem most frequently pops up with NFS mounts. -- Marcel Moolenaar mail: marcel@cup.hp.com / marcel@FreeBSD.org tel: (408) 447-4222 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
