I recently took my primary hdd running FreeBSD 4.11-STABLE out of my main machine leaving my 2ndry hdd in the machine and installing FreeBSD5.3-STABLE on it to use as the new primary. When everything was done and i plugged in the 2nd hdd that priginally had 4.11-STABLE on it, i was unable to find the individual partitions/slices on there to mount so i could access all the old data i had. I have a basic understanding of FreeBSD but am still not quite proficent when it comes to this sort of thing. Below is the dislabel output of the drive im wanting to get all the data from.. # /dev/ad1s1c: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] c: 234436482 63 unused 0 0 # "raw" part, don't edit e: 234436482 63 4.2BSD 2048 16384 89 partition c: partition extends past end of unit disklabel: partition c doesn't start at 0! disklabel: An incorrect partition c may cause problems for standard system utilities partition e: partition extends past end of unit ========== Any help in recovering the copius amounts of data would be greatly appreciated. -- Yours Sincerely Shinjii http://www.shinji.nq.nu
