so write a short article about how you did this and why using hardware
RAID solutions is bad, and put it on your website.
it's AT LEAST funny that your hardware raid instead of protecting -
rendered your data inaccessible.

If anyone's interested, the last post I made about doing a bsdlabel, fsck,
mdconfig etc on the damaged disk image worked. I have recovered all my
files! Hooray!!!

Hello FreeBSD gurus,
I recently had the pleasure of trying to recover a failed RAID1 array. It
consisted of two 120GB disks in mirrored configuration. Both drives have a
ton of bad sectors, so bad that the 3ware RAID card stopped recognizing that
there was a mirror at all. Having no other
So, what can I do with those numbers? It doesn't look like there's any
valid MBR or disklabel on this disk image. Can I extract these filesystems
one at a time from the image and mount them somehow?
Thanks,
Skye

Update: I figured out how to get scan_ffs to read a file by looking at the
program source (if it starts with / then it considers it a regular file to
read instead of a device) and got the following results which matches well
with the TestDisk output.
$ scan_ffs
-a -t vnode -f disk.img -u 0
If that looks like it might work, should I fsck the disk image before or
after mounting with mdconfig or not at all? Do I risk kernel panic without
fsck?
Thanks,

Any suggestions on how to get to the data is much appreciated. I've learned
the hard way that RAID1 is no substitution for a backup plan :/
Thanks,
