Is there a chance to get the data back?
Dunno about current versions, but IIRC some earlier versions of
dump(8) could handle even a badly-corrupted FS. No harm in trying,
Dear all:
I have a very similar problem as Roland Smith almost two years ago. My
hard drive got corrupted (I do not really know why) and when running
fsck the first error message is ROOT INODE UNALLOCATED (the full
output of fsck is given below. I can then type y and it looks like

Had a power outage recently; when trying to fsck several
external hard drives I'm getting unexpected errors.
For example:

a) what's probably happened?
Error messages are explained in Appendix A of
One of the disks mentioned in part one was not recoverable.
So: newfs.
However, something else is broken. Results of newfs is appended.
What?

From professional experience as a data recovery technician, I can tell
you that ufs2 drives are among the hardest to recover from after a
there is a little change as UFS2 use lazy inode initialization. so
possibly lots can be recovered. but i don't know any soft that does it.
moving disks from an old server to a new one I suffered from a moment of
brain fade last night and newfs'ed a drive I shouldn't have. One of that
new crop that is so large you won't have an adequate backup for it... :(
no rescue. newfs overwrote inodes that contained your files metadata.
with a subject this time...
I've used /usr/ports/sysutils/testdisk to recover my BSD partitions, but
it was just a HD failure/MBR nukage, no newfs was run on it - Try that.

Hi,

I used to think just like you. I thought I found the perfect balance
between being on a budget and still having some kind of data security
by using the Vinum software raid.
So I stored the first 10 hours of video and 4k of still shots of my
newly borned first child on the raid, and everything
