Subject: Moving FreeBSD from Slave to Master (Mounting Problem)

I currently have 2 harddrives. My slave ad1s1a (freeBSD) and my master
ad0??? (windows).

But when I remove the windows hardrive and turn my freeBSD into master I get
an error.

Manual root filesystem specification:
  <fstype>:<device>  Mount <device> using filesystem <fstype>
                       eg. ufs:da0s1a
  ?                  List valid disk boot devices
  <empty line>       Abort manual input

mountroot>

Do I have to mount each file system listed below?
(slave)

/dev/ad1s1a on / (ufs,local)
/dev/ad1s1f on /tmp (ufs,local,soft-updates)
/dev/ad1s1g on /usr (usr (ufs,local, with quotas, soft-updates)
/dev/ad1s1e on /var (ufs, local, soft-updates)
procfs on /proc (proofs,local)

    with

/dev/ad0s0a on / (ufs,local)
/dev/ad0s0f on /tmp (ufs,local,soft-updates)
/dev/ad0s0g on /usr (usr (ufs,local, with quotas, soft-updates)
/dev/ad0s0e on /var (ufs, local, soft-updates)
procfs on /proc (proofs,local)

And are there going to be any problems with my kernel? Do I have to
recompile?

And procfs file system? Where is this stored? Ram?

************************************************

Before removing the Win HD, edit your /etc/fstab file 
to replace /dev/ad1** with /dev/ad0** in the 
appropriate spots.

Then shut down, remove the Win drive, turn the FreeBSD 
drive into the master, and boot up.

Should work, unless I'm forgetting something.

HTH,

Jud

One more thing - just noticed your proposed modified 
entries included /dev/ad0*s0*.  There is no s0.  Keep 
s1, just change /dev/ad1 to /dev/ad0 in each fstab
entry.
