Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a second bsd drive that is auto-mounted on bootup in the fstab file. It is wd3s1e and contains some files linked from wd1s1e, my freebsd primary drive (wd0s1 is a winblows drive). Anyway, I had to reboot into winblows the other day and when I rebooted into bsd drive wd3s1 failed to mount, and it was working just fine prior to rebooting. ------------------- Mount: /dev/wd3s1e on /mnt: incorrect super block Filesystem mount failed, startup aborted ------------------- Then I rebooted into single user mode and ran - ------------------- #fsck /dev/wd3s1 wd3: cannot find label (disk label corrupted) wd3s1: cannot find label (disk label corrupted) ** /dev/rwd3s1 Bad super block: Magic Number wrong ioctl (GCINFO): Invalid argument fsck: /dev/rwd3s1: can't read disk label # ------------------ Okay, if fsck can't fix it, what will? Is it really toasted? It is an older Fujitsu 2 gig drive, if it is saveable, at least long enough to copy off some files, that would be great. -- Chip www.wiegand.org ***** Visit my web site - Alternative Operating Systems - MS Windows isn't the only OS in town.
