Hi,
the below was resolved by rebooting the server. After a reboot the device
file /dev/da0s1g has been created, however this doesnt seem completely
normal as sysinstall obviously expected to see the new device file
immediately. Perhaps there is a prob with my system or is there just a
problem with the expectations of sysinstall?? :S
cheers Andy.

Hi,
ok, so I have attempted to proceed with my original task which was to
create a new UFS2 parition (using sysinstall). Having chosen "c" and then
"w" from the lable section, i recieve the following error:
Error mounting /dev/da0s1g on /export : No such file or directory
After exiting sysinstall, I can see from bsdlabel:
8 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
a: 20971520 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0
b: 20971520 75497472 swap
c: 285153687 0 unused 0 0 # "raw" part, don't
edit
d: 20971520 20971520 4.2BSD 0 0 0
e: 20971520 41943040 4.2BSD 0 0 0
f: 12582912 62914560 4.2BSD 0 0 0
g: 146800640 96468992 4.2BSD 0 0 0
bsdlabel: partition c doesn't cover the whole unit!
"g" is my new partition. Under /dev however I dont see the device file:
ls /dev/da0*
/dev/da0 /dev/da0s1a /dev/da0s1c /dev/da0s1e
/dev/da0s1 /dev/da0s1b /dev/da0s1d /dev/da0s1f
Can anyone help :(
thanks a lot,
Andy.
