I am reasonably new to MacBSd and I am having a problem mounting the /usr
on to a partition in the Install Utility.
I have a IIcx and was never able to get 1.1 to boot in multi-user mode. I
wanted to see if 1.2 would work or not, so I installed it on a 100MB HD
with a single partition for /root and /usr. This worked perfectly. (I am
very impressed with the stability of 1.2)
Now, I am ready to create a usable system, so I have acquired a 730MB
Quantum. I used Silverlining to create the following partitions:
# 128606 Root (SVR_2)
# 3072 Eschatology
# 553600 UNIX Slice 3
# 20480 Swap
# 10000 Macintosh
I ran Mkfs on the Root and UNIX Slice 3 partitions. I then followed the
Install instructions and I am trying to mount the second UNIX partition as
/usr. I built devices and go to the MIni Shell. When I type
mount /dev/sd0g /usr
I get:
/usr : No such file or directory
I tried creating a directory with mkdir, but then the above command gives me
/usr : Invalid argument
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
