Hello!

I am a new BSD user and I entered the scene with a a = major=20 screwup.

My HD is 12.5GIG but after messing with freeBSD only = 7.5GIG=20 can be used now.

Fdisk does not see more than 7.5 GIG aswell as "disk = druid"=20 which is a redhat partition tool. I have even installed windows back and = then=20 run Partition Magic. Sad to say with no success.

Because no one knew a cure, I deided to re-install = FreeBSD and=20 then have a closeer look at the partition process.

Now even BSD can only see 7.5 gig.

I have read and asked, but no one seems to have ever = seen this=20 problem.

Is there anyone who can help me to get my 12.5GIG=20 back?

I am happy to try anything at this point plus, there = is no=20 valuable information on the drive.

Any ideas would be of great help.

Thank you,

V M
