I have installed BSDI 2.1 with out much trouble, to an IDE drive in a test system. I have now tried to add a SCSI disk/file system to be used by the OS. The installation of the SCSI adapter went fine and the drive is seen as sd0. I have run "disksetup -i sd0" to create the disk partition and selected h as the whole disk and assigned a value of "/exmp" as the mount point. I chose not to write boot blocks or a "/" root partition but did save the changes to the label. Next I did a "newfs /dev/sd0h" but when I tried to mount /exmp it tells me there is no such file or directory. I know the I have missed a step but I don't know where. I have looked through the man pages and cannot find what I am doing wrong. Can anyone out there guide me to the correct group if this is not the correct one or recommend documentation that covers this, the manual is not very descriptive. Thanks in advance, Darryl A. Brown
