I recently tried to install a new HDD to my system. I formatted the HDD
using a FreeSBIE 1.1 live-cd distribution (running FreeBSD 5.3). I used
the entire disk with a single partition and formatted it with ufs.
I ran 'newfs' on the system and then copied all my files onto it over the
network.
Then I put it into my FreeBSD 4.11 system and I can't mount it.
Here is the fdisk info:
# fdisk /dev/ad1
******* Working on device /dev/ad1 *******
parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are:
cylinders=19929 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl)
Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1
parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are:
cylinders=19929 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl)
Media sector size is 512
Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1
Information from DOS bootblock is:
The data for partition 1 is:
sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
start 63, size 320159322 (156327 Meg), flag 80 (active)
beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1;
end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63
The data for partition 2 is:
<UNUSED>
The data for partition 3 is:
<UNUSED>
The data for partition 4 is:
<UNUSED>
The disk was mounted as /dev/ad2s1 on the 5.3 system. But that gives an
'invalid superblock' error on the 4.11 system.
# mount /dev/ad1
mount: /dev/ad1 on /home: incorrect super block
# mount /dev/ad1s1
mount: /dev/ad1s1 on /home: incorrect super block
Can anyone clue me in on this?
Please CC responses to root at 301south.net, since my user's home directory
is on the [unmounted] disk.
Thanks in advance,
Brandon
