Hi, I noticed one problem with the disklabel output while installing 4.2 It automatically detected the file system in my first slice which is fat32 wrongly as 4.2BSD But fdisk detected it correctly during the install phase After the install I got inside the System to investigate. The file system is indeed fat32 as you can see I mounted it with mount_msdos successfully and listed it. fdisk output also says the same. Any Idea why disklabel reports it falsely to be a 4.2BSD filesystem?
Thankyou so much :-) Kind Regards Siju OUTPUS BELOW-------- # disklabel wd0 # Inside MBR partition 1: type A6 start 19535040 size 19535040 # /dev/rwd0c: type: ESDI disk: ESDI/IDE disk label: ST340014A flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 16 sectors/cylinder: 1008 cylinders: 16383 total sectors: 78165360 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # microseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # microseconds drivedata: 0 16 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg] a: 18309312 19535040 4.2BSD 2048 16384 1 b: 1225728 37844352 swap c: 78165360 0 unused 0 0 i: 19534977 63 4.2BSD 2048 16384 328 j: 15631245 39070080 ext2fs k: 995967 54701388 unknown l: 11711322 55697418 ext2fs m: 10747422 67408803 ext2fs # mount_msdos /dev/wd0i /mnt # cd /mnt/ # ls Recycled AUTOEXEC.BAT BOOT.INI System Volume Information CONFIG.SYS WINDOWS Documents and Settings IO.SYS MSDOS.SYS NTDETECT.COM NTLDR PAGEFILE.SYS Perl Program Files # # fdisk wd0 Disk: wd0 geometry: 4865/255/63 [78165360 Sectors] Offset: 0 Signature: 0xAA55 Starting Ending LBA Info: #: id C H S - C H S [ start: size ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *0: 0C 0 1 1 - 1215 254 63 [ 63: 19534977 ] Win95 FAT32L 1: A6 1216 0 1 - 2431 254 63 [ 19535040: 19535040 ] OpenBSD 2: 83 2432 0 1 - 3404 254 63 [ 39070080: 15631245 ] Linux files* 3: 05 3405 0 1 - 4864 254 63 [ 54701325: 23454900 ] Extended DOS Offset: 54701325 Signature: 0xAA55 Starting Ending LBA Info: #: id C H S - C H S [ start: size ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 0: 82 3405 1 1 - 3466 254 63 [ 54701388: 995967 ] Linux swap 1: 05 3467 0 1 - 4195 254 63 [ 55697355: 11711385 ] Extended DOS 2: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused 3: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused Offset: 55697355 Signature: 0xAA55 Starting Ending LBA Info: #: id C H S - C H S [ start: size ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 0: 83 3467 1 1 - 4195 254 63 [ 55697418: 11711322 ] Linux files* 1: 05 4196 0 1 - 4864 254 63 [ 67408740: 10747485 ] Extended DOS 2: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused 3: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused Offset: 67408740 Signature: 0xAA55 Starting Ending LBA Info: #: id C H S - C H S [ start: size ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 0: 83 4196 1 1 - 4864 254 63 [ 67408803: 10747422 ] Linux files* 1: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused 2: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused 3: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused # OpenBSD 4.2 (GENERIC) #1179: Tue Aug 28 10:37:50 MDT 2007 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC real mem = 469037056 (447MB) avail mem = 443813888 (423MB) mainbus0 at root bios0 at mainbus0: SMBIOS rev. 2.3 @ 0xf0730 (54 entries) bios0: vendor American Megatrends Inc. version "080012 " date 06/19/2006 bios0: ASUSTeK Computer INC.
