HI Antonio. Thank you for your posts and help. I have taken a screenshot of the mounted etc/fstab or better said /mnt/etc/fstab and I have also ls -l /mnt/dev/serno. The only thing is I have not looked into the loader.conf which I reckon is mostly likely either in /boot or /etc. I think the problem is that dragonflybsd is not creating the devices upon boot because I have moved the system from vmware workstation 6.5 to virtualbox 4.04. I have looked into the man 8 boot page, however there is considerably less information about dragonfly bsd on the web than linux. I have converted linux physical machines using rsync, cpio, and netcat to vmware, but I have little experience with dragonfly.

My first time posting on this list. My problem in a nutshell is I installed dragonfly bsd 2.8 in vmware workstation. I reinstalled the host system that vmware workstation was on and decided on using virtualbox. I imported my dragonfly bsd vmware workstatation vmdk files into virtualbox. Upon boot in virtualbox I run into the problem of mounting the disk. I am prompted at the boot prompt to detect the disk that the system resides on. I have tried hammer:ad0s1, hammer:ad0s1a, hammer:ad0s1d and just ad0s1. I am however not able to boot the system. I have also booted from the live iso image and mounted the system manually into /mnt using mount_hammer /dev/ad0s1a /mnt and took a screenshot of /etc/fstab. I however ask if there is a simple way to fix my mount problem. Any information needed in regards to solving this problem will be gladly appended. kær kveðju/kind regards, Úlfar Ellenarson SAP ráðgjafi / SAP Consultant [cid:image001.jpg@01CBD354.CA06FBC0] Borgartúni 37 105 Reykjavík, Ísland T: +354 563 6226 E: u...@applicon.is<mailto:h...@applicon.is> W: www.applicon.is<http://www.applicon.is/>
