I was working on an upgrade to 6.3 from 6.2 and I lost power during the install which hosed most of my system. Instead of trying to really recover it I decided to just rebuild. I have a backup of my /etc and /usr/local/etc on a different drive that should be fine, it was just mounted under /mnt normally and used for backups. My problem is that I installed 7.1 and was careful not to erase any data on that drive, but my only options for a partition to mount is /dev/ad2s1. When I try to mount that it gives me "mount: /dev/ad2s1 : Operation not permitted", what can I do to get the data off of it? I only really care about my /etc information but it would be nice to get all of the information off of it.
