This morning I didn'= t have time to setup vinum and installed 5.4 from cd onto ad0 as usual. How can I see the data on my vinum drive (ad2) using mount? Other methods you know of to access the drive to see if I can recover any data? I tried mounting but only get "incorrect super block" error. root# mount -t ufs /dev/ad2s1e /mnt/ad2 mount: /dev/ad2s1e on /mnt/ad2: incorrect super block I also tried changing the fstype from "vinum" to "4.2BSD" using bsdlabel bu= t no such luck. root# bsdlabel ad2s1 # /dev/ad2s1: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] c: 241248042 0 unused 0 0 # "raw" part, don't edit e: 233815971 0 vinum f: 7432071 233815971 4.2BSD 2048 16384 89 Suggestions greatly appreciated. I searched the lists and google but could not find the answer. Milan
