Well, I tried to mount the stand and root systems.
I get two different errors when I do...
When I type: mount /dev/stand /mnt
I get the error " no such file or directory "
The /mnt directory is there... and nothing is mounted.
If I do an ls in the /dev directory, there is no stand in there.
If I try mount /dev/root /mnt I get the error... cannot stat '/dev/root'
Here's the steps I took..
I ran fdisk and used UNIX for the entire drive.
I activated the partition.
I then ran divvy and created the filesystems .
If I look at the filesystems configured I get the following:
+-------------------+------------+--------+---+-------------+------------+
| Name | Type | New FS | # | First Block | Last Block |
+-------------------+------------+--------+---+-------------+------------+
| boot | EAFS | no | 0 | 0| 29999|
| swap | NON FS | no | 1 | 30000| 1602219|
| root | HTFS | no | 2 | 1602220| 5602221|
| u | HTFS | no | 3 | 5602222| 71665954|
| | NOT USED | no | 4 | -| -|
| | NOT USED | no | 5 | -| -|
| recover | NON FS | no | 6 | 71665955| 71665964|
| hd0a | WHOLE DISK | no | 7 | 0| 711673965|
+-------------------+------------+--------+---+-------------+------------+
71665965 1K blocks for divisions, 8032 1K blocks reserved for the system
As expected, df -v shows no mounted filesystems...
What's my next step?

Hello,
I was reading the manual on rm and it states that when you use 'rm' the files are usual recoverable, how is this done?

msdosfs
MSDOSFS(5) BSD File Formats Manual MSDOSFS(5)
NAME
msdosfs -- MS-DOS file system
SYNOPSIS
options MSDOSFS
DESCRIPTION
The msdosfs driver will permit the FreeBSD kernel to read and write MS-DOS based file systems.
The most common usage follows:
mount -t msdosfs /dev/ada0sN /mnt
where N is the partition number and /mnt is a mount point. Some users tend to create a /dos directory for msdosfs mount points. This helps
to keep better track of the file system, and make it more easily accessible.
It is possible to define an entry in /etc/fstab that looks similar to:
/dev/ada0sN /dos msdosfs rw 0 0
This will mount an MS-DOS based partition at the /dos mount point during system boot. Using /mnt as a permanent mount point is not advised
as its intention has always been to be a temporary mount point for floppy and ZIP disks. See hier(7) for more information on FreeBSD direc-
tory layout.
