I have tried the archives and google, but didn't find any good pointer (maybe a problem of keywords ?):
After some 20 cycles of power outage / restore - that is some twenty crashes - a database server of mine doesn't reboot any longer. It gets stuck at booting hd0a:/bsd 4804448+939504 [52+247296+228813] entry point at 0x100120 I tried bsd.old and bsd.rd All with a similar result (similar: other numbers). Now I wonder what is best recommended to get this production box back at work ? I hope to avoid a complete re-install ... . Someone will flame me for backup. Alas, the icing on the cake is, that the backup was scheduled exactly during those outage cycles and is spoiled as well. I might dig out the backup of one week ago, but then, the data of the database are not exactly fresh. Thanks for any suggestion, Uwe
