Message-ID: <1993Feb20.234728.29584@netcom.com> Organization: Ronco Food Dehydrator/Yogurt Maker/Beef Jerky Machine Date: Sat, 20 Feb 1993 23:47:28 GMT Lines: 17 I'm trying to set up a second filesystem under 386BSD. I've found about 16 different hard drive drivers (/dev/wd??) but have found nothing that says which driver points to which partition, as seen in DOS FDISK. Ordinarily, I'd just experiment, but I have a number of DOS partitions around that I don't want to mutilate in the process. Oh, by the way, the partition to be added is on a second hard disk, but I have installed with the new bootable that supports second hard drives, so that shouldn't be a problem. Thanks for any help/pointers, Paul -- Paul Eastham Home: zap@netcom.com -- Los Altos, CA Work: paul@cerberus.arc.nasa.gov -- Ames Research Center, Mountain View, CA Play Vincent's Hollow LPMud: mud.iastate.edu 1992 "There are no facts, only interpretations." -- Nietzsche
