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

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.

System can not boot, seems can not find right partition after add new label
Hi,there: A short story is: When I boot my laptop, the screen tells me "invalida partition" and then give me the prompt "default: 0:ad(0,a)/boot/kernel/kernel". My FreeBSD / partition is at /dev/ad4s3a, so I tried "4:ad(3,a)/boot/kernel/kernel", but without lucky. Could someone tell me how should I give it the command, thanks in advance. Long story: Because my partition is nearly full, last night I delete a windows ntfs partition and try to use it under FreeBSD 7.0 Release as /home, I used to put /usr and /home together. I can not remember whether I do something stupid, I just dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad4s2 to write zero, then when I want to use bsdlabel to create new slice, but the new slice did not show up. So I tried sysinstall, still did not work. I thought it was because it used to be a ntfs partition, so I wanted to boot to windows and delete the partition. But it could not boot till now. There used to be a easyBCD soft to help me boot freebsd from the Windows Vista boot loader, but it did not appear, but a directly Invalid Partition Any suggestion appreciated.

Re: I can not boot my FreeBSD-5.2 partition, please help
Using SBM "Smart Boot Manager" http://btmgr.sourceforge.net/ I was able to boot my FreeBSD 5.2R out of the box which is located on the upper part of the disk (40G to 80G). It uses MBR for installation, so you can boot from a DOS floppy. Backup your existing MBR and isntall this nice tool.

I can not boot my FreeBSD-5.2 partition, please help
Hello, I've got a 40 GBytes hard disk on an old Pentium MMX 266 MHz. The first time I plugged it into the motherboard my BIOS didn't recognize the drive, but fortunately there is a jumper that reduces the size of the disk to 32 GBytes, and that's enough for my BIOS at this moment. So I've got something like this: 10 GBytes for Windows 2000 10 GBytes for Linux 10 GBytes for FreeBSD-5.2 The big problem is that the FreeBSD boot manager that I've got installed on my MBR is only able to boot the Windows partition. So, for booting Linux I've got a 1.44 booting disk. How can I do the same for booting the FreeBSD-5.2 partition ? Do I have other posibilities ? Any help will be kindly appreciated, but not tell me "buy another hard disk...buy another puter.". I love my puter, ok ?
