I *had* a working NAS configured with one 1,5 TB drive. However, it does not recognize the /usr partition according to the RAID error code. It does recognize and boot off the drive, so I think that an OS reload would ultimately get me my free space -- but as I would be BOFH'ing myself, I'd rather not try that until all is clearly lost. The RAID manufacturer does not provide utilities for debugging/dumping data, so any tools/solutions I come up with would be external.
I was able to connect the drive via a USB adapter to my FreeBSD laptop for analysis. I think I still have data on it, but I cannot seem to mount the 3rd partition, which would be /usr:
This is my system -- 8.2-STABLE, rebuilt my kernel last week to get VirtualBox updated:
This is the same error I get for the first partition (/), and as it boots off that, I know that it may not be a bad partition, but most likely is something I am doing or not doing:
and it looks like a regular linux RAID.
and the partition 0xFD is a Linux software RAID, which makes sense.
If I run tune2fs against that device, I get:
Any idea why, with the Inode size being 128, I can't mount this? Is there any way that I can recover the files on the 3rd partition? If I can just get to them by inode, I can write a script or something to recover what I need and move on.
I do have ex2fs loaded:
and the dmesg where the drive is added:
I'm guessing the warning that appears in /var/log/messages has a lot to do with my problem.
Any suggestions as to what I should do?

Any idea why, with the Inode size being 128, I can't mount this? Is there any way that I can recover the files on the 3rd partition? If I can just get to them by inode, I can write a script or something to recover what I need and move on.
