Voicu, First, ALWAYS put a subject in your post and try your best to summarize the entire question in a few descriptive words. Frequently, not putting a subject will cause list members to skip over and ignore your post. Second, read the handbook section 2.5: Allocating Disk Space at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-steps.html This should help you to understand device naming/numbering in FreeBSD That said, assuming that you are using IDE HDDs, you device names will probably correspond between Linux -> FreeBSD something like: FreeBSD -> Linux /dev/ad0s1 -> /dev/hda1 /dev/ad0s2 -> /dev/hda1 /dev/ad0s3 -> /dev/hda1 /dev/ad0s4 -> /dev/hda1 >From here you can read up mount(8) for more information on mounting various filesystem types. A Google (or similar) search would probably also prove helpful. Good luck, Nathan To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
