i installed 2.1.0-RELEASE using the boot floppy to install to sd1
(imprimis drive). 1.1.5.1 was on sd0 (seagate drive). after the install,
i tried to boot to sd0 (the 1.1.5.1 disk). 'no bootable partition'. the
FreeBSD partition is gone. it was the only partition on the disk.
i was able to recreate the disk partition using 'fdisk -iu'. but the
disklabel is not found:
keystone: [3] disklabel sd1
disklabel: ioctl DIOCGDINFO: Invalid argument
how do i recover the disk without resorting to a full install and restore
from tape??
here is the dmesg from the 2.1.0-RELEASE system (i switched the disks,
imprimis is now sd0)
