you can use fdisk, bsdlabel & newfs without sysinstall
# fdisk -BIq /dev/ad1
# bsdlabel -w -B /dev/ad1s1 auto
# newfs /dev/ad1s1a
# mount /dev/ad1s1a /mnt

Make sure /dev/ad1s1 exists and formatted.

when i type # mount /dev/ad1s1 /new
it returns a ‘mount: /dev/ad1s1 invalid argument’ error.

Awww.. /usr has nothing to do with “user”.. It’s “Unix System Ressources”.
