Hi All,

Due to a power outage, my FreeBSD-6.1 (i386) machine got rebooted. However, upon reboot right after the initial startup menu, it simply
hangs.

I tried rebooting the machine several times but in vain.

My Bios detects my hard drive. Also since I get the initial startup menu, something must be wrong or corrupted in the Boot loader.

Can somebody point me or give me any hints about fixing this problem.
I have really some information in my hard drive which I want to keep
or restore.

Hello Tek,

The first thing I'd do is to download FreeSBIE (if you already don't
have it), boot from it and do some initial inspection of the main drive.

Then you will probably collect some more data about status of file
systems etc. that will allow people from this list to share with you
much more useful advices than it's possible at the moment.

Hi Nikola,

I just finished downloading FreeSBIE and when I tried to boot it, I get the following errors:


CD Loader 1.2

Building the boot loader arguments
Looking up /BOOT/LOADER...  Found
Read Error: 0x10
Could not find Primary Volume Descriptor


Does this mean that my hard drive is dead and gone?

Thanking you...






Nikola Lečić
