hi, I'm attempting to install netbsd on a jornada 690, and getting rather confused. Using the 2003-09-24 snapshot from uwe's website, I've booted the jornada and mounted a miniroot filesystem; currently, I'm trying to label some CF to use, using disklabel from the miniroot fs: # disklabel -i -I wd0 partition> P 16 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg/sgs] a: 990704 10240 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 10*- 992) d: 1000944 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 992) e: 10177 63 MSDOS # (Cyl. 0*- 10*) parition> W Label disk [n]? y Label written partition> Q (Does this seem sane? This is 512MB CF) Now if i run disklabel -i, the kernel prints "wd0: no disk label", and disklabel shows: 7 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg/sgs] a: 983040 16384 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 16*- 991*) d: 16352 32 MSDOS # (Cyl. 0*- 16*) e: 983040 63 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 16*- 991*) I don't understand at all what happened to cause that change; suggestions are much appreciated. Also, I've made some hardware modifications to my machine (moving the CF slot, speaker etc around, mostly to avoid having the tray sticking out when a pcmcia card is inserted, which irritated me.) My machine now has a flat underside; I'll put details on a webpage, if you're interested. regards, - tom
