During early 2.1 install tests my wd0 got wiped out when I was trying to install on wd1. I managed to write a little program to find a disklabel (DISKMAGIC) on the disk and dump the label information. What I want is to dd the relevant portion to another disk and vnconfig this piece as a vn disk to recover important information which still resides on the disk. How do I get to the begin of the FS once knowing the offset of the disklabel resp. the partition offsets? --Chris Christoph P. U. Kukulies kuku@gil.physik.rwth-aachen.de
