And then I made a mistake. I was creating partitions on the new disk with /stand/systinstall (fdisk) and after that I accidently chose BOOR MANAGER instead odf MBR, what I wanted. Now my machine doesn't boot anymore. I get to see: >> FreeBSD/i386 BOOT Invalid partition Default 0:ad(0,a)/ad0 Boot: I am/was running FreeBSD 4.2. What am I supposed to do now, to make it boot again. I DID NOT change anything on the exsisting disk. I only created partitions on the new disk and accidently chose BOOT MANAGER instead of MBR. Thanks, eveything I need is on that machine so it has to work... Marcel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
