I'm trying to install a fresh copy of FBSD (2.1 or 2.1.5) and when it mounts the root file system, it's mounted 'read only' and doesn't appear to be writing the data to disk, so it panics when it's suppose to mount the root file system. Can someone tell me why? *** Please respond to this message as this account is not on this list *** Thanks, Mark ========================================================================== Mark Stout | The Village Potpourri Mall: http://www.vpm.com/ ---------------+---------------------------------------------------------- VPM Enterprises; P.O.Box 6427; Folsom, CA 95763-6427 Secured Internet Sales, Marketing and Advertising Specialist ==========================================================================
