On the 1st drive I installed FBSD 6.0, updated sources/ports, build and install world/kernel. Rebooted. All is well. I set up RAID0 on the other 2 drives using my (Tyan) mobo's controller (NVRAID). This array shows up as /dev/ar0. I proceeded to set up a filesystem on ar0: # fdisk -I /dev/ar0 # bsdlabel -w /dev/ar0s1 # bsdlabel -e /dev/ar0s1 e: * * 4.2BSD # newfs /dev/ar0s1e # mkdir /vol1 # mount /dev/ar0s1e /vol1 Everything worked fine. df shows ar0s1e as 300 GB. I edit /etc/fstab: /dev/ar0s1e /vol1 ufs rw 2 2 I reboot: # reboot "Missing operating system" Where did I go wrong and what should I do now?
