Hi All,
I installed FreeBSD after installing Windows 7, and now when I try to boot FreeBSD it says
When I type ?, I get:
So when I use the syntax:
[CMD="mountroot>"]ufs:/dev/ad2[/CMD]
or
[CMD="mountroot>"]ufs:/dev/label/ad2[/CMD]
I can't mount any of the above listed GEOM devices.
I also tried [cmd=]set vfs.root.mountfrom.options=rw[/cmd] at the loader prompt like it suggests but no luck. Booting to any other option like single user mode or safe mode doesn't work either. I'm using the FreeBSD bootloader by the way if that helps.
When this problem happened the first time, I reinstalled FreeBSD and it has happened again, I've never been able to boot to FreeBSD. When I installed FreeBSD, it installed to ada1s3, but this isn't listed when I type ?. I tried:
[CMD="mountroot>"]ufs:/dev/ada1s3[/CMD]
and
[CMD="mountroot>"]ufs:/dev/label/ada1s3[/CMD]
just for kicks, but no luck.
Please help!
I installed FreeBSD after installing Windows 7, and now when I try to boot FreeBSD it says
Code:
Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/label/rootfs0
ROOT MOUNT ERROR:
If you have invalid mount options, reboot, and first try the following from the loader prompt:
set vfs.root.mountfrom.options=rw
Loader variables:
vfs.root.mountfrom=ufs:/dev/label/rootfs0
vfs.root.mountfrom.options=rw,noatime
Manual root filesystem specification:
<fstype>:<device> Mount <device> using filesystem <fstype>
eg. ufs:/dev/da0s1a
eg. cd9660:/dev/acd0
This is equivalent to: mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0 /

When I type ?, I get:
