Danke. This worked fine. > Afterwards check whether ad0s4 device entry are present and /etc/fstab > is correct :-) And all was good. I can use my the DragonFly install. My only problem is when I reboot I have to that each time with the boot CD. Now to figure out how to get a boot manager on there. I used: boot0cfg ad0 and it said: boot0cfg: /dev/ad0: unknown or incompatible boot code I then did: # disklabel -B ad0 super block size 0 Maybe should have used ad0s4 as the man pages warned? I rebooted and no change. My previous boot menu was still there. And choosing my DragonFly just reboots instantly. I did it again with "disklabel -B ad0s4". And still no change. Any suggestions on creating a boot manager using tools provided with DragonFly? I need to boot: NetBSD from slice 1, FreeBSD from slice 3 and DragonFly from slice 4. I do have a boot loader now that works for NetBSD and FreeBSD and has a non-working entry for DragonFly. Later I may try Grub for this as someone else suggested to me. I may also try doing this from the NetBSD install. Jeremy C. Reed ps. Please CC me.
