-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- I just deleted Winblows 95 off my hard drive. I'm very happy about this, but would like to reclaim the space for FreeBSD. My FreeBSD resides in /dev/sd0s2[abef] and my winblows used to live in /dev/sd0s1. "newfs /dev/sd0s1" results in: PigStuy# newfs /dev/sd0s1 newfs: /dev/sd0s1: not a character-special device newfs: ioctl (GDINFO): Invalid argument newfs: /dev/sd0s1: can't read disk label; disk type must be specified How do I re-format the ex-winblows part of my hard drive so FreeBSD can use it? -Spike Gronim sporkl@ix.netcom.com The majority only rules those who let them. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBNq0oOZ31G6IEwnwxAQH66gQAt1rbbLMkUC6WrOjunHuLch4ijsuIAe/8 SWxUPGyglsb0NNOXn4PvvZ/6iY5K3pa2MgVZmJfTNf/pjIju/+7LBVbPzyg2JVEh h49G52hn0aOUYeom5PslxK5La1olIWTa6Fbsz+EO00QfhYNz5EzmLUNQblpMdLY1 61kTsE+iPwg= =VKMK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
