Not it does not boot. The console screen reads like: FreeBSD/i386 boot Default: 0:ad(01,a)/boot/kernel/kernel boot: When I hit enter, it gives error as below: FreeBSD/i386 boot Default: 0:ad(01,a)/boot/kernel/kernel boot: error 16 lba 207 No /boot/kernel/kernel And the loopback to the following boot promp again, FreeBSD/i386 boot Default: 0:ad(01,a)/boot/kernel/kernel boot: There are some important date on the drive. I don't want to lose them. At least I want to recover them. Does anyone has similar experience or knows how to fix it? Please advice.
