Re: can't mount windows partition

Snip /dev/ad0s1 /windows/C ntfs ro 2 0 /dev/ad0s3 /windows/E msdosfs rw 0 0 (You don't need the 2, it can be 0) For fat it can be 2 or 0 for NTFS though i believe a 2 can result in difficulty restarting automatically after a panic. You need to create the directories for the mount points (/windows/C and /windows/E). The partition in /dev/ad0s3 is my FAT32 partition which is the writable one - you don't want the ntfs filesystem to be writable.if you want the FAT32 (msdosfs) parition to be writeable, then /windows/E must be a writable mount directory. You of course, should use your own device (/dev/ad0s*) names as they are going to be different from mine. Once you have these in your /etc/fstab they will automatically mount on boot (as configured this way). If you don't want to reboot after editing the file, you can always just do a : mount /windows/E To manually mount...or umount /windows/E to umount it. The configuration I have just described is how I wanted to set it up on my system, but others may have different opinions/setups. Good luck. -Kevin Snip The english seems fine to me for examples of what you really don't want to go here.

I think of geometry hdd problems, because it gives me an warning in the installation, altough i cant put my BIOS geometry because my laptop phoenix BIOS dont show the disk geometry. The disk comes from the shop with XP installed on it, so ... it works and i need it working quickly, anyone know what the problem is ? Well this should have been reincluded in you corrected version also. If it boots XP the disk is probably fine, but if it does not pass the post test then something is amiss. I would try looking up the geometry on the manufacturers website and checking that that is how it is detected. Otherwise if it is a older bios it may need an overlay or a bios update to use. please check out http://www.lemis.com/email.html for info on formatting. -Thomas ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Thomas ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
