Details hal-storage-fixed -mountrefused uid 0 How to fix this and umount /var Notice I have asked you to switch to single user mode before copying or unmounting var. But from your prompt, I understand you are still running full multiuser, and of course, /var will not unmount then. Remount /usr and issue the command: shutdown now to switch to single user mode. You need console access for this, do not attempt it remotely (unless you have a serial console) ! Then continue from the point you copy the data using the tar command. If you have already copied data from /var to the new partition, this may well be stale since /var was in use. You may wish to newfs the new partition again in this case. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
