I did an upgrade via Boot CD, from FBSD 5.4 to 6.1 that finished without errors. But after the reboot, I discovered that the disk partition has gone. The original disk had two partitions, one DOS (20GB) and the other FBSD (60 GB), selectable via FBSD boot manager. Since I don't have a backup of the original disk labels, how can I recover my partitions?
You can try to use the fdisk program via the sysinstall program from your boot CD (ie Configure->Fdisk) and recreate your partitions, assuming you can remember or get lucky recreating the exact parameters. There's also:
/usr/ports/sysutils/testdisk Tool to check and undelete partition Works with the following partitions: - FAT12 FAT16 FAT32 - Linux EXT2/EXT3 - Linux SWAP (version 1 and 2) - NTFS (Windows NT/W2K/XP) - BeFS (BeOS) - UFS (BSD) - Netware - ReiserFS TestDisk is under GNU Public License. You can compile it under Dos with DJGPP or under Linux or BSD with gcc.
