I have a usb external hard drive from a dead OpenBSD x86 system, and I want to
mount the drive on
$ uname -a
FreeBSD AngkorWat 8.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE #0: Thu Feb 17 02:41:51 UTC 2011 root at mason.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64
$
fdisk on the FreeBSD system looks like
Disk name: da0 FDISK Partition Editor
DISK Geometry: 20023 cyls/255 heads/63 sectors = 321669495 sectors (157065MB)
Offset Size(ST) End Name PType Desc Subtype Flags
0 63 62 - 12 unused 0
63 321669432 321669494 da0s4 4 OpenBSD FFS 166 =
321669495 3465 321672959 - 12 unused 0
The OpenBSD fstab is gone, and the backup copy is (of course) on the disk I
want to mount. How do I go about mounting this disk on FreeBSD? The following
don't work:
# mount /dev/da0 mnt
mount: /dev/da0 : Invalid argument
# mount /dev/da0s4 mnt
mount: /dev/da0s4 : Operation not permitted
