Hi all! Something curious happened today after cvsuping/buildworld/install/installnewkernel. It's the second time I update src after 3.0-stable. When I rebooted the system stopped with " /dev/da0s1a on /: Specified device does no match mounted device Filesystem mount failed, startup aborted" After searching for some time in the freebsd.org mailing lists search, I bumped into an email that referred the fact that when not using the slice description part (i.e. da0a) mount would try to mount the first FreeBSD slice. Well it worked. Had to change /etc/fstab to mount /dev/da0a on / so boot process could go smoothly, without manual intervention. Is this a proper procedure ? Is it ok to /dev/da0a on / ? What happenned ? Why doesn't it mount with the old /dev/da0s1a ? Anything wrong with today's src ? Thank you in advance : ) Joao Pedras ------------------------------------------ Sent using XFMail on 24-Jan-99 at 18:38:48 This message was sent by XFMail proudly powered by FreeBSD ------------------------------------------ In English, every word can be verbed.
