I have BSD on my powerbook 165. I'm using a custom kernel, and access it
through a terminal (adb isn't quite working yet from what I'm told). I
have my unix partition on a Syquest EZ135. When the sytem boots into
single user, the root partition comes up as read only. Refering to the
faq, i tried mount -u / at the prompt. It states that
ufs: /dev/sd2a on /: specified device doesn't match mounted device.
Booting in multi user gets errors, and then reverts to single user with
read only partition.
The question is: How to I make my root partition read write.
do I need to edit fstab?
ps. I'm kind of a newbie to unix so please try not to talk too muck over
my head on your
responses. :)
Thanks
