Its been running great for over a year. But recently everything went down and when I reboot and put a monitor on it I get the following errors on screen: GEOM_MIRROR: Device gm0: provider ad1 disconnected GEOM_MIRROR: Device gm0: provider mirror/gm0 destroyed GEOM_MIRROR: Device gm0: rebuilding provider ad0 stopped Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode... (this is followed by details about the fault) These errors are preceded by other related error information that flys by on the screen and I have no way of seeing them again. Does anyone now what steps I should take to figure what is going on and try to recover data or get the machine to boot?
