Hi all, I apologize if this is the wrong place to ask such questions. I've tried to ask in freebsd-questions, but no one ever replied. The disklabel output is as follows: root@dns :~# disklabel ad1 # /dev/ad1c: type: unknown disk: amnesiac label: flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 16 sectors/cylinder: 1008 cylinders: 29826 sectors/unit: 30064608 rpm: 5400 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # milliseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds drivedata: 0 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] c: 30064608 0 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 # (Cyl. 0 - 29825) I hope this helps. One more question; how do you change the rpm value for a disk? Thanks in advance.

You are trying to mount the wrong partition (c) on your drive. The c partition is symbolic and represents the whole drive. You probably have another partition to mount. BTW, this does not belong to -stable, from what I understand of your problem. Am I right here, people? A. On Wed, 8 Nov 2000, Noor Dawod wrote: > Hello all, > > Our server was upgraded recently.
