Hi,
recently I had to recover an old dying SCSI HDD ( unknown original machine ) via dd ...
I was able to write it into a raw ile without any problem.
But now I am not able to access the internal filesystem.
With a direct file mount I get the error : not a block device but after some internet searching I was able to use mdconfig and "transform" it into a block device...
Nonetheless I get to the point where I am able to read a the partition table ( via fdisk ) where only the 4th slice has a filesystem.
I have /dev/md0 and the system reports a valid /dev/md0s4 "slice" ( partition) ...
But trying to mount it is where I have the problem :
Partition type reports as : 0x63 ( GNU HURD or SysV )
calling: "mount -t ufs /dev/md0s4 /mnt/yyy " gives me : unknown filesystem ...
How can I mount such "slice" or partition ?
Some context :
Using the latest FreeBSD 14.0 default kernel and only added fusefs to access the external NTFS drives ...
