Today I ran fdisk,disklabel, and newfs on ad2 and successfully completed the installation process to upgrade to 5.0-CURRENT. However, when I booted into -CURRENT, ad0 did not appear in /dev. The boot manager properly offers the option to boot from ad0 or ad2, and FreeBSD properly boots on either drive - -STABLE boots on ad0 and -CURRENT boots on ad2. When I boot into -STABLE I can still mount slices from ad2 as before, but I *cannot* mount slices from ad0 when I boot into -CURRENT. I first tried to auto-mount ad0 slices in -CURRENT by including them in /etc/fstab. When that failed I commented those entries out and rebooted and then tried to manually mount a slice from ad0 ... to no avail. "ls -al /dev | grep ad0" reveals that there are no entries for ad0*. Furthermore, there are no entries in the new /dev which resemble a disk device other than those for ad2. What is I'm gonna do? Thanks for your attention, Lane
