You should have answered to vice-setup about the name of your rootvolume, it creates an implicit moutpoint at the root of your cell. > root_at_kryten:~# ll /vice I think you should have a file /vice/db/ROOTVOLUME containing the name of your rootvolume. > root_at_kryten:~# ll /vicepa > total 0 > - -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Sep 3 11:03 FTREEDB > > Looks a bit empty to me.
