Are you sure that /dev/ad0s1 is your file system? I'd expect a PATA drive to show up named /dev/hda or /dev/hdb and partitions named /dev/hda1 etc. Likewise SATA drives are normally named /dev/sda with partitions named /dev/sda1 etc. Are you running debian-kfreebsd? What does dmesg say about the disks? What about 'cfdisk -P s /dev/ad0'? -- Fredrik Jonson -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
