The good news: I discovered my IBM DTLA drive was connected to my VIA ATA66 controller and was able to move it to my Promise ATA100 controller socket. The bad news: I cannot boot! The device names of my harddrive have changed. This is what it looked like before: (4.3-STABLE) dmesg | grep -i ata atapci0: <VIA 82C686 ATA66 controller> port 0xd800-0xd80f at device 4.1 on pci0 ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0 ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0 atapci1: <Promise ATA100 controller> port 0x8000-0x803f,0x8400-0x8403,0x8800-0x8807,0x9000-0x9003,0x9400-0x9407 mem +0xce800000-0xce81ffff irq 10 at device 17.0 on pci0 ad0: 43979MB <IBM-DTLA-307045> [89355/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA66 acd0: CD-RW <RICOH DVD/CDRW MP9060> at ata1-master using PIO4 Now that I've moved the HD cable to the ATA100 socket, this is what I see: atapci0: <VIA 82C686 ATA66 controller> port 0xd800-0xd80f at device 4.1 on pci0 ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0 ata2: at 0x9600 on atapci1 atapci1: <Promise ATA100 controller> port 0x8000-0x803f,0x8400-0x8403,0x8800-0x8807,0x9000-0x9003,0x9400-0x9407 mem +0xce800000-0xce81ffff irq 10 at device 17.0 on pci0 ad4: 43979MB <IBM-DTLA-307045> [89355/16/63] at ata1-master UDMA100 acd0: CD-RW <RICOH DVD/CDRW MP9060> at ata1-master using PIO4 I've managed to mount /dev/ad4s3a as a read-only filesystem. I was hoping to change fstab entries from ad0/ad4 but I have no ad4* devices in /dev. And, I cannot mount / read-write. So how can I fix this? I've tried using the live filesystem CD in fixit mode. I can mount /dev/ad4s3 (my / partition of old) rw but cannot do a ./MAKEDEV ad4. It returns error messages (I can get them if necessary). Thanks for the help. It sucks having to boot into windows to type this email :( -- Regards, Doug To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
