That kind of depends on what X is.
If you mean literally /dev/X then I'm thoroughly confused also.  
But I suspect that X is a disk drive device.  Which one, and what kind
of hardware you use, is important.

Installation problem - device node

2005-10-05 Thread peter bailey
I am trying to install freebsd on a computer with 2 hard disks.  This
message comes up when it tries to start creating the file system:
Unable to find device node for /dev/X in /dev.  Install then fails.  
Has anyone got an idea what is causing this as I am a 'newbie' to
freeBSD.
Regards
Peter
