Hi!
I tried to install NetBSD 1.6.1 to my Sun IPX machine. All went until
rebooting the machine. It seems that system is unable to mount root
filesystem as read-write.
I see this error message:
mount_ffs: /dev/sd0a on /: specified device does not match mounted device
while rebooting after installation. When I login as root I see:
# mount
root_device on / type ffs (read-only, local)
# cat /etc/fstab
/dev/sd0a / ffs rw 1 1
/dev/sd0b none swap sw 0 0
# mount -urw /
mount_ffs: /dev/sd0a on /: specified device does not match mounted device
# mount -u /dev/sd0a /
mount_ffs: /dev/sd0a on /: specified device does not match mounted device
# dmesg|grep boot
bootpath: /sbus0/esp0/sd@0,0:c
I am quite lost. Is this know problem?
Petri
