Subject: My freebsd partition changed by Windows chkdsk
Message-ID: <50924049.1020...@eskk.nu>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
I've replaced my dual boot hard drive with an SSD.
My hard drive had one 100 GB windows partition and one 300 Gb Freebsd
slice with five partitions (/, /usr, /var, /tmp and /home).
In order to move my Win7 partition a Norton Ghost program was supplied
with the new disk.
When trying to clone that partition the process couldn't finish because
it needed a chkdsk command to be executed before cloning.
I ran a chkdsk c: with the choice of correcting errors.
Somewhere in that process the chkdsk program touched my freebsd
partition in a way so that it now is recognized as NTFS.
That I trusted the chkdsk program to do what I told it to do was in
retrospect a bit naive ;-) I do have a backup although it's not as
recent as I would have liked.
Can you think of any way to perhaps recover the data from the freebsd
partition?
Thanks
/Leslie

Another approach is to use an external SPI programmer:
http://flashrom.org/Supported_programmers
The 'downside' of this is that you need to take your laptop apart.
ODM schematics of your laptop are found here:
http://notebookschematic.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/6515b_6715s.png
Downloads for BIOS updates:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=3356623&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=3368539&swLang=13&taskId=135&swEnvOID=1093#120
and ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55501-56000/sp55556.exe
My guess (I am not a HP service technician) is that you need
ROM.CAB/Rom.bin from sp55556.exe - you can use 7zip to extract Rom.bin
This is probably way beyond my skills,
but thanks anyway.

Hi,
Can anyone in this list verify that both RAID controllers are supported on
FreeBSD 8.3 or 9.1
H710 has LSISAS2208 dual-core PowerPC ROC
H310 has LSISAS2008.
I am planning to use these controllers on R420 and R320 Dell Servers. I
would also like to get comments on these two platfoms and if there are any
issues on FreeBSD 9.1 (I know it is RC2 right now)
Regards.

If all it did was change the partition type, that should be easy to
change back with gpart modify. Untested example below, make a backup of
the disk as it is right now first. Clonezilla will make a (large)
binary backup.
# gpart modify -i2 -t !165 ada0

Hey everyone,
So, I have a question. I have Makefile.am, configure.in and a file
called dstring.pc.in (for a library of mine called dstring) for a
project. It always built fine on Linux. My home is now FreeBSD. This
is the first time I've tried to compile/install this library since
moving away from Linux. I'm able to use autotools on FreeBSD to
generate configure and Makefile.in, and can use gmake to compile and
install it.
Unfortunately, the man pages are installed to /usr/local/share/man
instead of to /usr/local/man, which I thought the tools would've taken
care of. Also, even though I see my library was successfully compiled
and installed to /usr/local/lib, when I try to compile a program with
gcc source.c -ldstring, I get:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ldstring
Other open source projects I've seen have installed fine on FreeBSD just
with the simple configure --prefix=/usr/local && make && make install.
I'm not sure what's wrong with my own setup.
Disclaimer: I have no idea what I'm doing :) Does anyone have a stab in
the dark that might help me fix these things? I can send any of the
three files above if you need to see them.
Thanks so much everyone!
James

Update: I can compile against my dstring library by using the following
line:
gcc source.c -L/usr/local/lib -ldstring. I guess it didn't know to
search /usr/local/lib. Still having trouble figuring out how to install
the man pages properly, though :(

I use sysinstall and fdisk to find the disk, and I get
Offset Size(ST) End Name PType Desc Subtype Flags

It's ad12s3 that's my freebsd slice
gpart show ad12s3 returns
gpart: No such geom: ad12s3
How do I proceed?

The easiest way to do it is to have a look at the porter's
handbook (part of the FreeBSD documentation) and use the
predefined target locations for the generated components.
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/
However, I always thought /usr/local/lib would be one of
the default search paths for ld, so -l<library> for any
library residing there should be fine - except of course
you override default options of cc...
For your project, you could create a Makefile containing
the required CFLAGS and LDFLAGS, define a rule for building
the target and then just use "make".
