Hello Everyone, First off, I wanna say thanks to all the help this list has provided and continues to provide. With every new failure comes help from one of you and then I learn and can contribute to others as well.
So here's what's going on now... I attempted an upgrade from 5.0 to 5.1(I've heard upgrade is rough at times). Whenever trying to perform this upgrade I get weird kernel panics(this is when I choose to upgrade my src as well). So I gave it a shot without upgrading source and it tells me /mnt is full(I believe this is not the true /mnt, but rather the backup directories it uses to preserve existing files). So now I'm SOL and cannot boot. I have a dd image of my drive as well as dumps of each partition(for once I did this..thank god). The problem I'm running into is how the heck can I restore the entire drive with dd or restore. I know the commands to use, however, I need something to boot to. Here's the thing. I have the FreeBSD5.0 Disc 2 and I can start a shell when going into the Fixit option..however, from here I'm kind of lost. Is there a HOWTO on how to use CD2 out there for common functionality? I am unable to even mount /dev/ad0s1..... Any help out there?
