Re: [rofug] Re: (Fwd) mountroot>
Hi, Please use english. Try inserting the following in /boot/loader.conf: root_disk_unit=1 From loader(8): root_disk_unit If the code which detects the disk unit number for the root disk is confused, eg. by a mix of SCSI and IDE disks, or IDE disks with gaps in the sequence (eg. no primary slave), the unit number can be forced by setting this variable. Alternatively you can try creating a file "boot.config" in the root filesystem containting: 2:da(1,a)/kernel See boot(8).

Re: (Fwd) mountroot>
hi, exactly this is my problem.. i've read the 7.3 section of the handbook and searched also other forums and sites for this .. it seems i'm not the only one with this problem but i did not find somewhere an answer.. my lilo.conf looks like this: other=/dev/sdb1 table=/dev/sdb loader=/boot/chain.b label="FreeBSD" what is going wrong?! mfg Alexandru On 20 Jun 2003 at 22:03, Viktor Lazlo wrote: Have you followed the applicable instructions from section 7.3.1 of the handbook?
