Hi I am using FreeBSD 6.1 on Ultra Sparc II. I have two hard drives on my system. ad0 has only Free BSD installed and is the master and ad1 has multiple partitions, (1 FREEBSD, 2 FAT32) and is the slave FreeBSD is able to detect both the drives but doesnot show the partitions of ad1 in /dev, because of which I am unable to mount it. The MAKEDEV script is not there, since devfs is supposed to take care of this all . Even the fdisk utility in sysinstall shows ad1 as a single block and not the individual partitions. I donot wish to repartition ad1 since I have lots of data in the drive and cannot afford to loose it. Help and ideas needed to solve this problem. Thanks in advance -- Siddharth Seth
