Situation: Server stops booting (I think running FreeBSD 9.1).
Put in backup drive. Machine now boots up fine.
Try to mount the original drive and can't. Not sure if it is the drive or my lack of experience.
I guess I am trying to figure out if the drive is bad or just corrupted (and maybe learn something is the process).
I know I could reformat and such but there is some data that would be convenient (but not critical) to have.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill
