...how this can happen is not a topic of this message. now, there is a problem and I need to solve it, if it is possible.
have one HDD device (80gb), entire disk is for rpool, system on it and home folders. this is no problem to reinstall system, but need to save some files from user dirs. an, o'cos, there is no backup. so, the problem is that zpool is broken :( when I try to start system from this disk, got a message about there is no bootable partition. as I see, the data on the disk is not touched, so the only broken information is partition table. format says that disk is unknown and propose to enter cilinders/heads/etc manually. this has been done (looking to the same HDD info). but when I try to enter into "partition" menu of format utility, there is a message about This disk may be in use by an application that has modified the fdisk table. so, there is no way to see/modify slices (I need s0 slice, 'cos rpool is on it). any try to access to s0 partition (dd if=/dev/dsk/v14t0d0s0 ...) reports an I/O error, but p0 is readable. also, it is known that disk was formatted with OpenSolaris installer to use the whole disk. help me, please. is it possible to access to the pool on this disk? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
