Adding a disk, quickly

December 10th, 2004 | by jg3 |

This is my cheat sheet for adding a disk in FreeBSD. This information is geared for 5.x. No attempt at explanation is made. Caveat Emptor, sucka.



# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/da2 bs=1k count=1

# bsdlabel -Bw da2 auto

# newfs /dev/da2a

# echo ‘/dev/da2a               /da2            ufs     rw              2       2′ >> /etc/fstab

# mount /da2
