HELP! Up 9 months, blackout, now wont boot v8.2

All,
HELP! Machine was up almost 10 months, 6 websites, databases (all of them) GONE! Machine blacked out, no warning, nothing on the screen before it happened (usually a crash warning and eminently a reboot), I can only assume it is the primary drive as the 4 RAID drives and it's config are healthy. Ver 8.2 When I boot, I get
Code:
Invalid partition
Invalid partition
No /boot/loader

FreeBSD/x86 boot
Default: 0:ad(0,a)/boot/kernel/kernel
boot:
Invalid partition
no /boot/kernel/kernel

FreeBSD/x86 boot
Default: 0:ad(0,a)/boot/kernel/kernel
boot:

Using fixit and livefs cd. I just took a look at ad0 in fdisk and this is what
it looks like
Code:
Mount

none
swap
none
none
none
Any ideas?

I think using fdisk and recreating the mount points or label would clear it up. I have done that in the past with other primary drives and never lost any data on the boot drive. I would rather ask all you pro's if there is a better,safer way as I don't want to risk the aforementioned if I don't have to...
