Dear Fs goup, I attempted to create a new partition on a disk drive in RedHat 5.0. This didn't work. Instead my other hard disk became unusable. When attempting to fix this in FreeBSD 2.2.6, I was interested to find that the disklabel for this crashed disk was different from that stored in the FreeBsd system. Even after a new FreeBSD installation. I have noticed similar comments in this forum; to the effect that the disklabel stored on the disk is different from the one stored in FreeBSD for the same disk. I used: $disklabel wd2 and $disklabel -r wd2 Can any one shed any light on the matter? I solved the problem by using DOS fdisk and formating the drive again.
