Hi, I seem to have lost the partition info of one of the harddisks. Is there a backup copy of partition information stored elsewhere in the disk?
The long story: - Due to some hardware problem, one of the HDs stopped working. (doesn't spin at all) After trying it on couple of machines, I did manage to get it boot on one of the machine (may be the way I kept the harddisk or whatever). However, when I tried to ifconfig an interface (to move the data out), it decided to bail out again and it didn't survive the second reboot. Finally I ended up with a HDD where the disklabel shows only one partition - 'c'. A boot with fixit disk shows ad0s1 thru 4 (but it is supposed to have only one slice and then couple of BSD partitions inside. fsck on /dev/ad1s1 went OK, But that's only the root partition (I don't really care about that one). If possible, fsck on /dev/ad1s2 thru 4 bailed out with problems reading BLKS 16 thru 20. I would like to recover /usr/home. Is there any chance? I only need a couple of files recovered. Any help is appreciated. -- Hari Bhaskaran To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
