Well..I installed the FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE release lately, and everything went 
fine as far as the install was concerned. Yeah, I had some problems getting 
KDE to work properly, cuz of some issues with the Xserver, but they could be 
dealt with. So for a couple of days, I must say that FreeBSD was working 
fine. 

Then I was looking for some way of mounting the FreeBSD partition on Linux 
and/or vice-versa. But I couldn't do it. 

The next time I tried booting to FreeBSD, I am getting the same errors that 
you are!!! This time, I have no clue to what went wrong! 
Is this a known bug or something?
