That looks suspicious: here it is: ======================================================================= #disklabel wd1s1 type: EDSI disk: wd1s1 label: flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 16 sectors/cylinder: 1008 cylinders: 2099 sectors/uint: 2116737 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # milliseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds drivedata: 0 8 partitions # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 40960 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 #(cyl. 0-40*) b: 131072 40960 4.2BSD #(cyl. 40*-170*) c:2116737 0 unused 0 0 #(cyl. 0-2099*) e: 819200 172032 4.2BSD 0 0 0 #(cyl. 170*-983*) f:1125505 991232 4.2BSD 0 0 0 #(cyl. 983*-2099*) ====================================================================== Now, I only set up 4 partitions (/, swap, /usr, /u) which look to correspond to a,b,e & f above. Where on earth c came from is beyond me. Any ideas of what is happening (& why & how to fix)? Thanks for the time. -- - Mike mdwhite@ucdavis.edu
