Thanks Pete - I think I am understanding you. if you look at the output
below. I typed "mount" and specified the onstream drive. after the
successful mount executing the label command complains of /dev/sa0 not being
mounted. what else can I try here?
can you please tell me or point me to the location in the documentation that
explains how I can grant permission for read/write to the /dev/sa0. I am
running bconsole as root at the moment and find that I can write just fine to
/dev/sa0 .
