This is what the fla driver README says: "FreeBSD 4.0 and forward find their root device by reading the /etc/fstab, so the DiskOnChip devices will work just like any other device." How the kernel reads /etc/fstab before it knows where / is is beyond me. Moving on... "In pre 4.0 versions specifying the boot device in the kernel config file this way is the easiest way to do it: config kernel root on major 28 minor 65538" Anyway, I'll give it a try. =============================== Jeffrey S.
