I have an 8Gig drive and a 30Gig drive on my PC.
the 8Gig drive is known as /dev/ad2*
the 30Gig drive is known as /dev/ad0*
I've been running 4.9 STABLE since December on ad0, and I have been using ad2 for SWAP
and TMP and other crap.
Today I ran fdisk,disklabel, and newfs on ad2 and successfully completed the installation
process to upgrade to 5.0-CURRENT. However, when I booted into -CURRENT, ad0 did not
appear in /dev.
The boot manager properly offers the option to boot from ad0 or ad2, and FreeBSD properly
boots on either drive - -STABLE boots on ad0 and -CURRENT boots on ad2.
When I boot into -STABLE I can still mount slices from ad2 as before, but I *cannot* mount
slices from ad0 when I boot into -CURRENT.
I first tried to auto-mount ad0 slices in -CURRENT by including them in /etc/fstab. When that
failed I commented those entries out and rebooted and then tried to manually mount a slice
from ad0 ... to no avail. "ls -al /dev | grep ad0" reveals that there are no entries for ad0*.
Furthermore, there are no entries in the new /dev which resemble a disk device other than
those for ad2.
What is I'm gonna do?
Thanks for your attention,
Lane
