本文介绍手工为FreeBSD添加新硬盘的一般性方法。假设我们的FreeBSD已经有了一块IDE硬盘，我们需要为它添加一块新的IDE硬盘，并把新添加的硬盘的所有空间作为一个分区加载到/disk1下面。
基础知识
FreeBSD分区描述符为从"a"到"h"的8个字母。根据惯例，分区"c"被保留用作描述整个磁盘，"a"用作标识根分区，"b"用作标识交换分区。对于新添加的硬盘，我们常常只建立一个分区，标识为"e"。
IDE硬盘标记为ad，而SCSI硬盘标记为da，从0开始计数，因此，我们新添加的IDE硬盘将作为ad1出现在系统中。
一般步骤
把新的IDE硬盘接入系统，并确认开机以后系统找到了新添加的硬盘。可以通过检查/var/run/dmesg.boot来确认系统是否找到新添加的硬盘。
