That looks pretty normal to me. This does not look like the 'dangerously dedicated' disk that I mentioned earlier. What does bsd label show for it? As root, do: bsdlabel ad1s1 If that has a usable label, then I think the next thing is to try and read up and check the first and maybe a later superblock. That I would have to study on. I did that maybe 9 years ago and don't remember what I did. ////jerry > > Marty > > -- > Web Installed Formmail - http://face2interface.com/formINSTal/ > Webmaster's BBS - http://bbs.face2interface.com/ > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
