Help please Date: 11 Aug 1994 22:16:37 -0400 Organization: Plymouth State College, Plymouth, NH Lines: 22 Message-ID: <32em25$gk5@oz.plymouth.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: oz.plymouth.edu I have a second drive I have just put into my system, I created a disktab entry (using diskpart) and 'disklabeled' it. All is fine until I reboot, then it cannot find the label anymore. I am running freebsd 1.1.5.1. My steps: 1. Create disktab entry 2. 'disklabel -w -r wd1 qp240' 3. newfs /dev/rwd1a qp240 4. fsck /dev/rwd1a 5. reboot 6. Roboot tells me no label. I have seen this somewhere before, I just cannot remember where. I looked in the FAQ, but it did not help. Any help would be appreciated... --> Ted
