I have installed FreeBSD on a laptop's internal disk and am trying to see if the same installation can be run from that disk when it is inserted in an external USB enclosure.
As it stands now it starts to boot but stops with a mountroot error. I believe that this is to do with fstab entries which mount various partitions. Originally they would have been /dev/ada0* but when booting from USB they should be /dev/da0*. Is there any way I can change these entries at boot time? i.e. by having different fstab's I can select, or is there some other way?
