Problem regarding free BSD

2009-10-14 Thread Abhilash Shukla
Hello,Respected Sir/Madam,Actually i tried to install free BSD on my system, I 
have 1 TB hard disk of 500GB X 2 in which i made a partition in one of my hard 
disk which even contains some data. Unfortunately i lost all my data, as i 
think but its truly very important for me. As after the completion of the 
installation part when i tried to boot into it, i was unable to do so, now i 
installed Windows XP into my system and tried to access the other hard disk but 
still i can't. As when i installed BSD in other partition why i am not able to 
access the other drive in the same hard drive. Please help me how can i recover 
my data.Thank You,Abhilash Shukla.Dear questi...@freebsd.org ! Get Yourself a 
cool, short @in.com Email ID now!

As far as I understand, the data on the partition you put freeBSD on
is gone. You should have noticed the warning during install that
warned of this.

Concerning XP and looking at other partitions, (as far as I
understand) you should install XP first and then install freeBSD with
a bootloader that will allow you (easier) access to all of the OS's.
MS doesn't like to share disk space.

Perhaps I misunderstood your situation concerning the loss of data.
If so, there is open source data recovery software out there. I can't
think of the names right now, but I'm sure you have the necessary
searching skills to find them yourself.
