(if you are adding an IDE drive substitute wd for da)". It should mention that in 4.0 the device name for ATA drives will be 'ad-', e.g. 'ad0'. >How-To-Repeat: Refer to web page at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/disk-adding.html >Fix: How about this wording: "Continuing with our example, the newly added drive will be da1 and we want to mount it on /1 (if you are adding an IDE drive it will be wd1 in pre-4.0 systems, or ad1 in most 4.x systems)." Note I also moved the period to the end of the sentence. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: State-Changed-From-To: open->closed State-Changed-By: jim State-Changed-When: Fri Jun 16 11:18:36 PDT 2000 State-Changed-Why: Committed, thanks! http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=19334 >Unformatted:
