I am not sure if this is the right forum for this question but I haven't
had a lot of help with this problem elsewhere.

I have a Seagate Barracuda drive on a BT958 controller that dies during
heavy writes.  I have pretty much narrowed it down to outdated firm ware,
but I have not been able to upgrade it yet.

Right now it is down.  I can stop, start, and tur it with camcontrol, but
am unable to umount, mount, fsck, fdisk, or disklabel.  I get device not
configured errors.

My question is why I cannot remove the mount point as listed in # df with
the # umount -f /dev/da1s1e command.

In the past I have been able to comment out the entry in /etc/fstab and
reboot.  Then I can run fsck by hand and remount the drive.  Right now
reboot is not an option.

Any suggestions would be appreciated,
