In the last episode (Jul 14), Heinrich Rebehn said:I am trying to mount disks by label. The glabel(8) manpage suggests: tunefs -L data /dev/da4s1a mount /dev/ufs/data /mnt/data I tried that, but i don't see a /dev/ufs at all. Does it have to be mounted? If so, how?Make sure you have the geom_label module loaded, or have "options GEOM_LABEL" in your kernel config file. It's also a bit sensitive; if your filesystem doesn't completely fill the partition it's in, you won't get a label, so if you have resized partitions and not yet run growfs it won't show up.
Hmm, it does not work: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [~] # kldstat Id Refs Address Size Name 1 9 0xc0400000 3c8ed4 kernel 2 14 0xc07c9000 56270 acpi.ko 3 1 0xc3c38000 17000 linux.ko 4 1 0xc9610000 4000 geom_label.ko 5 1 0xc918f000 2000 geom_vol_ffs.ko [EMAIL PROTECTED] [~] # tunefs -L backup /dev/da1s1a [EMAIL PROTECTED] [~] # tunefs -p /dev/da1s1a tunefs: ACLs: (-a) disabled tunefs: MAC multilabel: (-l) disabled tunefs: soft updates: (-n) disabled tunefs: maximum blocks per file in a cylinder group: (-e) 2048 tunefs: average file size: (-f) 16384 tunefs: average number of files in a directory: (-s) 64 tunefs: minimum percentage of free space: (-m) 1% tunefs: optimization preference: (-o) time tunefs: should optimize for space with minfree < 8% tunefs: volume label: (-L) backup [EMAIL PROTECTED] [~] # ls /dev/ufs ls: /dev/ufs: No such file or directory The filesystem is freshly newfs'ed and the partitions have not been resized.
