Hello All,
I was wondering if anyone has any ideas on how I may diagnose/resolve this
issue. This is running 9.0 amd64 on a Toshiba Satellite A215. Unfortunately,
any cdrom other than the recovery cdrom doesn't work. And the recovery cd no
longer will recover. I'm not sure if this is a related issue, or just that
the harddrive is on it's last leg. It appears to be a filesystem issue, but
I can't boot it to diagnose any issues.
I am unable to retrieve logs, so here is a photo of the crash. If you open
in a image viewer, it should appear upright.

From a quick glance, your ffs filesystem appears to be badly damaged.
Not sure how you could proceed from here. Maybe force fsck in single user mode.
Try to make a disk image copy and play with it first (or keep it as a backup).

Turns out that there was some either corrupt file under /tmp that was X
related, or had wrong permissions. I had to clear out tmp manually, then run
startx to get into X windows. At this point, I remove the bit from
/etc/rc.conf that I had put in there to not clean out X related bits from
tmp. With all of these steps, I am successfully back on-line.
