You can try to use the fdisk program via the sysinstall program from your boot CD (ie Configure->Fdisk) and recreate your partitions, assuming you can remember or get lucky recreating the exact parameters. There's also: /usr/ports/sysutils/testdisk Tool to check and undelete partition Works with the following partitions: - FAT12 FAT16 FAT32 - Linux EXT2/EXT3 - Linux SWAP (version 1 and 2) - NTFS (Windows NT/W2K/XP) - BeFS (BeOS) - UFS (BSD) - Netware - ReiserFS TestDisk is under GNU Public License. You can compile it under Dos with DJGPP or under Linux or BSD with gcc. WWW: http://www.cgsecurity.org/ - Florent Thoumie flz@xbsd.org -- -Chuck
