X-Request-Do: resolve MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Ok. I installed my 2.1 system with Jordan's wonderful sysinstall utility. Now, I've added another SCSI disk (that previoulsy was a DOS disk). So. fdisk sd1. disklabel sd1. swapon /dev/sd1b, newfs /dev/sd1e. Works greta. What am I worried about? Well, the partitions are all in the form of: sd1e instead of: sd1s1e I looked through the handbook, but found nothing addressing this. Is the "s1" an artifact of making the other disks share space with other OS's? Am I being a hypochondriac in worrying about this? Will everything just work fine and I should shut up? or will it lead to ultimate destruction? And what about Naomi? Will she love again? pete
