What exactly did not work? You should use sysinstall (you can use
FreeBSD installation CD or liveCD), go to Configure - Fdisk, then
change slice ad4s2 type to 165 and write the changes. I should work.

Best regards.

Re: System can not boot, seems can not find right partition after add new label

2008-03-15 Thread Kemian Dang
Thanks for reponse,

Problem is the boot partition can not be found.
I burned a install cdm using it I find I have set ad4s2 to be
bootable, so I changed it back.
But this time, the system said I have missing something on boot...

I do not want to waste too much time on it, as I can have the back up
data, So I re install using the new burned CD...

Best whies,
Kemian

If you now see ad4s2a but cannot boot, you most probably need 
'bsdlabel -B /dev/ad4a2' to install the proper bootstrap code there
(see bsdlabel manpage).
