But this could be interesting. My problems starts when I couldn't boot machine. After selecting boot partition (F2) it shows me, that there is no kernel and I couldn't boot machine even in single mode. I've try to write BootMgr once again, but this doesn't help. I've mount partitions without any problems, but I couldn't boot from this disk. It is Seagate Barracuda ATA IV, 80GB. I'm successful boot from this disk for few times and I'm booting new, just rebuilded system too. I've have no idea what and when fucked up. Disk is new and it seems to be ok. This was UFS2 if I remeber well. BTW. fetch: http://www.watson.org/~robert/scan_ffs_freebsd4.tgz: Not Found What is correct URL? It could be useable for me in a future. -- Pawel Jakub Dawidek UNIX Systems Administrator http://garage.freebsd.pl Am I Evil? Yes, I Am.
