Hello! After my WINDOWS XP crashed, I decided to reinstall it... But I forgot that during windows installation it overwrites the MBR. So, instead of prompting me for the OS to load (FreeBSD or Windows), the system loads Windows. When I found this problem, I have booted my system from the CD, then entered Fixit menu, booted the Live File System CD and went to the Console at VTY4. Then I did the following:
mount /dev/ad0s3a /mnt - mount root filesystem fdisk -B -b /mnt/boot/boot0 /dev/ad0 - recover the MBR The last command gives me the error: ad0 Permission Denied. Note, that my Live File System CD is for the 4.4 Release, but I have 5.3 Release installed on my system. I don't expect this to be the reason of my problem, but anyway, who knows .... _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
