Derek,

Wouldn't you know,, I had a label set up in fstab and when I looked at the
error message it said it could not find a filesystem with that label,, well
I changed it to the first field to /dec/hda10 from /usr/local.,,, it all
went just fine.

Thanks for your help,, now on to migrating data to that fs.
