Message-ID: <19990316031900.A47018@clear.co.nz> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.4i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Is it possible to build a regular FFS filesystem on an LS120 disk? Do I need to use disklabel first to make a slice to contain a filesystem? Incidentally, Stupid Cautionary Tale Number 3841: When attempting to figure out how to make a ffs filesystem on an LS120 disk, using newfs /dev/rwfd0, on no account slip and avoid typing the "f". Much fultile scrabbling will ensue. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
