Anybody know whats changed ? Not directly. Alas, deducing from what I saw what newfs told me (note that newfs and mount_mfs are identical) you'll probably want to tell it the number of heads and the number of sectors per track manually (-t and -u, I think - "newfs" without options will tell you this) Hope that helps Bernard
