So I created the following:
Code:
Disk: ad4       Partition name: ad4s1   Free: 0 blocks (0MB)
Disk: ad4       Partition name: ad4s4   Free: 0 blocks (0MB)
Disk: ad4       Partition name: ad4s2   Free: 0 blocks (0MB)

Part      Mount          Size Newfs   Part      Mount          Size Newfs
----      -----          ---- -----   ----      -----          ---- -----
ad4s1d    <none>      44037MB *       ad4s2d    <none>        364GB *
ad4s4a    <none>        512MB *
ad4s4b    swap         4046MB SWAP
ad4s4d    <none>       3047MB *
ad4s4e    <none>        512MB *
ad4s4f    <none>      51875MB *
the funny thing is; under the sysinstall disk labelor, I see the mount point for ad4s1d and ad4s2d as <none>.

look at the following:
Code:
[disappearedng@ /usr/home/disappearedng]$ ls -a /usr/mount/
.       ..      350gb   50gb
So under /usr/mount, there are 2 directories, 50gb and 350gb.
When i try to select /usr/mount/50gb and /usr/mount/350gb as the mount points for ad4s1d ad4s2d respectively, I get the following error:

Code:
Unable to add /dev/ad4s4b as a swap device: Device busy
Error mounting /dev/ad4s2d on /usr/mount/350gb : Invalid argument
Error mounting /dev/ad4s1d on /usr/mount/50gb : Invalid argument
I have no idea what that means.

So i modified my /etc/fstab
Code:
# Device        Mountpoint              FStype  Options         Dump    Pass#
/dev/ad4s4b     none                    swap    sw              0       0
/dev/ad4s4a     /                       ufs     rw              1       1
/dev/ad4s4e     /tmp                    ufs     rw              2       2
/dev/ad4s4f     /usr                    ufs     rw              2       2
/dev/ad4s4d     /var                    ufs     rw              2       2
/dev/ad4s1d     /usr/mount/50gb         ufs     rw              2       2
/dev/ad4s2d     /usr/mount/350gb        ufs     rw              2       2
/dev/acd0       /cdrom                  cd9660  ro,noauto       0       0
and when it boots up, i get the error that ad4s1d and ad4s2d can't be mounted; some error etc.

WHat gives?

thx
