Hi, What you need is a GEOM module called nbsd. Here is the link: http://www.26th.net/public/projects/freebsd/geom_nbsd/geom_nbsd.tgz
This module is analgous to the default component (geom_bsd I believe it is called) that understands FreeBSD disklabels, but instead it understands NetBSD, OpenBSD and DragonFlyBSD disklabels. Once compiled and kldload'ed into the kernel, that module will allow you to mount your partitions from the OpenBSD disk. However, note that when I used it, there was some bug that did not allow you to get rid of the module (cannot rememeber whether it panicked, hung or just refused to unload), and so I simply rebooted once I had pulled the data off the drive I needed to. Incidentally, it seems a great shame that FreeBSD does not deliver this support in the base system, it would seem like a VERY useful thing to be able to do for users and developers who use a couple of the different BSD systems. Thanks and hope this helps, Alex J Burke. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
