fdisk -u did the trick to interactively edit the partition table.

Confusing was then, that the previous FreeBSD partitions
/dev/ad4s3d and /dev/ad4s4d were not present anymore.

I had to use /dev/ad4s3c and /dev/ad4s4.

But now I luckily was able to mount my old filesystems.

Am now in the process of cleaning up.

Thanks for all the help.
