My FreeBSD machine lost power and now it will not boot up correctly.
When it boots, I end up at a prompt:

mountroot>

I have figured out how to get to a commadn prompt from there.  I have
type in:

ufs:/dev/ad2s1a

The machine asks me for the path to a shell, defaults to /bin/sh, I
presee <Enter>.  Then what do I do??????  I have tried things like:

fsck /dev/ad2s1a

and

fsck -A

But nothing seems to work.  Please help!!!!!!
