If you will excuse me for now. I'm trying to solve the top-post problem.
I lost environmental power temporarily a few days ago, and when it was back (almost immediately), the machine restarted without any input from me. I had mounted to /home a 30 GB usb 2.0 hdd. I tried mounting again since I did not find it in df. The prompt is always "WARNING: /home was not properly dismounted. The output from dmesg is: da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: <HITACHI- DK23....> etc.... WARNING: /home was not properly dismounted. Thank you Paul, tried umount but the result was the same. Tried this: ls /dev/da0* /dev/da0s dev/da0s1 dev/da0s1c dev/da0s1d Thanks in advance for any help to mount the disk again. On 5/14/07, Paul Schmehl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
