Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Thu, 07 Jun 2001 15:02:06 -0700 From: Dave Hayes Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG If I boot from a CDROM (of my own creation admittedly), fsck -p wants to fsck the CD partition, /dev/ad0c. It is mounted as root. I look at the source and in preen.c I'm not able to see any way for fsck to do that. Granted I've never looked at fsck source before (I looked in /usr/src/sbin/fsck for it). Does anyone have any clues or am I going to have to insert printf() calls into it to see what is going on? ------ Dave Hayes - Consultant - Altadena CA, USA - dave@jetcafe.org >>> The opinions expressed above are entirely my own <<< "Challenges make you discover things about yourself that you never really knew." -Cicely Tyson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
