I have just been experimenting with Grub launching various Linux distros from a USB hard disk which has FreeBSD 11.0 installed along with a FAT32 partition containing numerous Linux ISOs. All of a sudden I get this UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY when trying to boot FreeBSD.
Running
I have no idea where to look.
I was able to mount this partition manually from an alternative installation of FreeBSD but foolishly added an extra mount line in the fstab of that installation to automatically mount '/dev/da0s1a' so now am unable to boot the alternative!
Running
fsck_ffs -y -B
I get:-
Code:
SEARCH FOR ALTERNATIVE SUPER-BLOCK FAILED. YOU MUST USE THE
-b OPTION TO FSCK TO SPECIFY THE LOCATION OF AN ALTERNATIVE
SUPER-BLOCK TO SUPPLY NEEDED INFORMATION: SEE fsck_ffs(8).
