Tell me something: Does FreeBSD boot? It seems to me Win2k is somehow broken but, if FreeBSD can boot then you can read the NTFS slice, therefore you can make a backup of your data storesd in Win2k slice. mount -t ntfs /dev/ad0s1 /mnt will mount slice 1 of ATA disk 0 if it contains an NTFS file system. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
