Justin, did you try # disklabel ad1 to see what device names FreeBSD calls them? Replace ad1 with whatever hard drive you have OpenBSD on. Then just try mounting the partition. For example mount /dev/ad1s1f /mnt Or instead of f, d or h whatever partition you want to mount. I can't see why FreeBSD wouldn't be able to see the disklabel with the disklabel command, but if it really can't, then boot into OpenBSD, write down what partitions are mounted where, and use that information to mount them when you're back in FreeBSD. The other option is to mount the FreeBSD partitions while in OpenBSD and copy the files over that way Tim On Tue, 21 Nov 2000, Justin Wojdacki wrote: > > Should be an easy one here: > > I just installed FreeBSD 4.0 on a machine I had laying around and I'd > like to copy data from some OpenBSD HDDs I've got sitting idle.
