I had X running one day and I come back to it and move my mouse a bit and my comp freezes up and the screen has some fragmentation lines on it. I do a hard reboot and I find that the image is very distorted, including the manufacturer before the bootloader. The distorted text was only the first reboot after this happened, however. I boot fbsd and I get some weird errors everytime: fsck: exec fsck_msdos for /dev/ad1s2 in /sbin:/usr/sbin: No such file or directory fsck: exec fsck_msdos for /dev/ad1s2 in /sbin:/usr/sbin: No such file or directory THE FOLLOWING FILE SYSTEM HAD AN UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY: msdos: /dev/ad1s2 (/media) Unknown error; help! init: /bin/sh on /etc/rc terminated abnormally, going to single user mode Now.. when I go into single user mode, no command seems to work besides cd and ls. I've checked this out with a linux live cd and the dir on this fs are all named wrongly with most having an asterisk in the middle of them, and some just missing alot of what they're named. I'd like to know what this possibly could have been, and how I can mount the fbsd fs from a live cd to get some config files off of it to make a reinstall easier, and see if I can maybe fix this by removing=20 /dev/ad1s2 from my fstab. I did some stupid things with my X packages recently and uninstalled all of them, and then had to pkg_add all of them back, I was thinking this *might* have had something to do with it.
