I have a remote machine with KVM access that I'd like to format and reinstall FreeBSD 7.0. I've succeded in formatting /dev/ad6 but not the main drive, /dev/ad4. Is it possbile to zero-fill format during the installation instead of simply deleting and recreating partitions?
I've tried booting into single user mode without any success: # umount -a umount: /cdrom: not a file system root directory umount: /var: not a file system root directory umount: /usr: not a file system root directory umount: /tmp: not a file system root directory # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad4 dd: /dev/ad4: Operation not permitted _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
