Stout" X-Mailer: Mozilla 2.01 (Macintosh; I; 68K) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Need Help!!! Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I have sent several pieces of e-mail in the past few days, and am in desperate need of a reply. I need to know the exact procedure for preparing a new hard drive for use in a FreeBSD 2.1 machine. I have a 2.2 gig SCSI-2 hard drive, and have been struggling with fdisk and newfs for a week now. I simply need someone to outline the proper steps for use of fdisk, newfs and mount in the installation of this hard drive. Matthew ZS matt@xanadu2.net
