Hi. I am relatively new to FreeBSD, have been running it since 5.1. Nothing like what I experienced today had happened previously. My machine crashed and I wasn't able to boot it back, the boot processes wasn't able to find the kernel. I then booted with the 6.0 Release CD and went into the FIXIT mode. I wasn't able to mount /dev/ad0s1a (I have an IDE drive), I then tried fsck_ffs /dev/ad0s1 and the message was: CAN'T READ BLCK 128 ioctl Inappropriate ioctl for device fsck_ffs: /dev/ad0s1 can't read disk label.
That machine was 6.0 p-1 (patched once) with slightly modified kernel. Is my data lost? Can anything be done still? Any help would be appreciated.
