>Description:
I have:
/dev/wd0a /
/dev/wd0e /var
/dev/wd0f /usr/local
I screwed up one install set, and went to "re-install" it after copying the right
image to the disk.
It fsck's /dev/wd0a, /dev/wd0e, /dev/wd0f and then does /dev/wd0e again, which
fails the second time.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
I suggest that in general, that an option to skip the fsck/mount sequence should
be available.
