Greetings all, It's my 1st time on any of the FreeBSD lists & I'm fairly new to FreeBSD to please bear with me..
So I've upgraded from 8.1 to 9.0 & now the system can't mount in single user mode to go through the final step of installing the world.. # cvsup.. Done.. # make buildworld.. Done.. # make buildkernel.. Done.. # make installkernel.. Done.. # reboot in single user mode to install world.. Failed to mount to /dev/ad2s1a.. {Yes, that *is* my HD} I rebooted from the loader prompt with my old (GENERIC) kernel & came up with the following.. peggy# ls -l /dev/ad* > crw-r----- 1 root operator 0, 79 Apr 8 08:47 /dev/ad2 > crw-r----- 1 root operator 0, 82 Apr 8 08:47 /dev/ad2s1 > crw-r----- 1 root operator 0, 84 Apr 8 08:47 /dev/ad2s1a > > peggy# cat /etc/fstab > # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# > /dev/ad2s1a / ufs rw 1 1 > /dev/acd0 /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 > > peggy# disklabel /dev/ad2s1a > # /dev/ad2s1a: > 8 partitions: > # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] > a: 20044017 0 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552 > c: 20044017 0 unused 0 0 # "raw" part, > don't edit > > peggy# fsck > ** /dev/ad2s1a (NO WRITE) > ** Last Mounted on / > ** Root file system > ** Phase 1 - Check Blocks and Sizes > ** Phase 2 - Check Pathnames > ** Phase 3 - Check Connectivity > ** Phase 4 - Check Reference Counts > ** Phase 5 - Check Cyl groups > 415735 files, 3148200 used, 1702923 free (40563 frags, 207795 blocks, 0.8% > fragmentation) > > peggy# kldstat > Id Refs Address Size Name > 1 7 0xc0400000 bb5504 kernel > 2 1 0xc2e1a000 26000 linux.ko > I know there's many 'mount' problem discussions out there but I can't seem to find out how to overcome this problem.. Many thanx in advance for any assistance..
