I don't want the default sysinstall ( presumably compiled into the kernel ) to come up on screen, instead i want a command prompt only. I will insert my scripts into .profile. The PROBLEM is that i get the message mounting root on fd0c while i am actually booting from CDROM. In my kernel the default root device is wd0, but i tried to change kernel root to acd0 , and to no avail. I get : ---------------------- Mounting root device on fd0c error mounting root on fd0c -- will reboot in 15 seconds -- bla bla ---------------------- How do i tell it to mount it on CDROM ( probably wcd0a ) say for instance /MYMOUNT_DIR ?? --------------DDFFC85A344002AED0D1217E Content-Type: text/x-vcard; charset=us-ascii; name="jkruger.vcf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Description: Card for Johan Kruger Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="jkruger.vcf" begin:vcard n:Kruger;Johan tel;cell:+27 83 3015923 tel;fax:+27 12 6651343 tel;home:+27 83 3015923 tel;work:+27 12 6651338 x-mozilla-html:FALSE org:Nanoteq;Development version:2.1 email;internet:jkruger@oskar.nanoteq.co.za title:Mr adr;quoted-printable:;;P.O BOX 12872=0D=0AOnderstepoort=0D=0A0110=0D=0ASouth Africa;Pretoria;Gauteng;0110;South Africa x-mozilla-cpt:;0 fn:Johan Kruger end:vcard --------------DDFFC85A344002AED0D1217E-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
