Hi all!

I have quite a big problem here....

I've upgraded my FreeBSD 4.11 to 6.1. Basically, I did a newfs of / and /usr
and reinstalled from scratch. That worked.

Rebooted in 6.1 single user mode, mounted /, /usr and /usr/home. The latter
I did not touch and I need to save that partition. /usr/home had all the
files it needed to have. PROBLEM: mount said soft-updates were not set on
/usr/home. So I did umount /usr/home, tunefs -n enable /usr/home, mount
/usr/home again... EMPTY!!!!

What has gone wrong? I did fsck (in read-only), no problems, rebooted the
system, did tunefs -n disable, still no luck. I really need those files
guys...

Please help urgently.

Many thanks,

Sven Hazejager

4.11 uses UFS1, 6.1 UFS2, there might be some conflict there...

Try using stellar phoenix BSD, it can recover data, before you start messing around and destroy stuff...
It's not free, but there's a free trial...
