I mounted a second disk on an existing system according to the instructions
in the FAQ. After getting an inderstanding of things better I finally got
it to format and mount but I think it did it wrong. Here's the disklabel;
# /dev/rsd1c:
type: SCSI
disk: SCSI disk
label: fictitious
flags:
bytes/sector: 512
sectors/track: 87
tracks/cylinder: 4
sectors/cylinder: 348
cylinders: 1818
total sectors: 632664
rpm: 3600
interleave: 1
trackskew: 0
cylinderskew: 0
headswitch: 0 # milliseconds
track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds
drivedata: 0
7 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg]
a: 512 192 unknown # (Cyl. 0*- 2*)
b: 10 479340 unknown # (Cyl. 1843*- 1843*)
c: 479350 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 1843*)
g: 478636 704 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 2*- 1843*)
I tried mounting slice g but it wouldn't format/mount. So I tried c and it
worked (and is working). Shouldn't 'g' be the slice that mounts? What is
the difference?
Thanks!
