My PC hangs and stops at:

     "mounting root from UFS:/dev/ad0s4a"

I am running FreeBSD4.4.
Recently I installed another OS and that process
rearraged my slices. So FreeBSD now resides at
ad0s4 instead of ad0s3.

To accomodate this change, I used the fixit.flp
to edit '/etc/fstab' and added the appropriate
devices (ad0s4a, ad0s4b,etc...)  to /dev using
MAKEDEV.
I used 'disklabel -e /dev/ad0s4' and everything
looked OK and did a 'disklabel -B /dev/ad0s4'.


I am able to manually mount the partitions
(ad0s4a,ad0s4f) so I know they are still
there.

What do I need to do now?

Note: Please "CC:" a copy of your reply to

Thank you,

Bill
