Instead you have /dev/wd2e (without the slice number s1). So you either change the entries in /etc/fstab from /dev/wd2s1e to /dev/wd2e or cd to /dev and enter sh /dev/MAKEDEV wd2 and sh /dev/MAKEDEV wd0. The slice number defaults to the first BSD-Slice of the disk, so changing /etc/fstab entries should work on your system. Good luck Wolfgang
