After I had entered my changes with option "u" for partition 1 it started on partition 2, eventhough it was only given the device for partition 1. So I quit. The disktab entries look ancient. Looking thru the disklable for the working disk it looks like newfs did a bum job, and tunefs is needed. This was 3.2. I'll try 4.0 and see if I have better luck. This time I'll put up freebsd last. ..Al To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
