Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Since having a raid array completely die on me and trying every possible combination to get even a single drive to ever remount. I took a brand new fresh drive from the shelf. Hooked it up to a completely differnt computer with a new adaptec card. I went into sysinstall to configure and add the drive to the system in a last ditch effort to see if it was some kind of incompatability with FreeBSD and the Barracuda drives. With a completely new system drive, card and box. I get the exact same error from FreeBSD when hitting "w" in the disklabel editor. DEBUG: MakeDev: unknown major/minor for devtype - I'm not a complete newbie and have installed additional disks in the past. Does anyone know if there is some problem with these drives in FreeBSD? Or am I doing something horribly wrong? Desperately, Keith To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
