thanks Pete for the response.  well then I dont understand what bconsole is
complaining about and how to make it happy. it appears to complaining that
/dev/sa0 is not mounted.  I couldnt find an exatc cure in the bacula
documentation both in the PDF from the install and the online documentation.

running on FreeBSD-4.11
bacual 1.36.2
