Hi,

With FreeBSD 1.1.5.1 I used to be able to mount /tmp as an mfs filesystem
with the command,

mount_mfs -s 8192 /dev/wd1b /tmp

However when I try this on 2.0.5 I get the following error,

thebride# mount_mfs -s 8192 /dev/wd1b /tmp
Warning: calculated sectors per cylinder (4096) disagrees with disk label (204)

and the mount fails. Anybody know whats changed ?

thanks for any help,

Joe.
