Given up on the upgrade from 6.0 to 6.4 and decided to go => 7.0 directly as I had a good bootable disc for this.
During the upgrade sysinstll directed me to the Disklabel Editor Page, where my ad0 partitions were not present, So I aborted the upgrade. On subsequent reboot the following came up =>
I had previously removed all my drives with the exception of the system drive which contained the /, /tmp, /usr & an unlabeled /var partition, These respectively were labeled ad0s1a, ad0s1e, ad0s1f & ad0s1d
Do I assume here that my partitions and data are wiped out, is there away of recapturing the or do I have to re Create, Newfs, etc from scratch?
