thanks,

i do as you said, but after loading gjournal, dd says "operation not
permitted".
gjournal clear says "operation not permitted" too and therefore "gjournal
label" is not done and say previous error (gjournal cannot clear metadata
on ad3s1a: operation not permitted). and -v return no extra log.

i don't know why i can not do any thing in fixit mode:(

is this a true procedure? i mean maybe i should do any thing else  because
freebsd handbook set journaling for user partition in single user mode not
in fixit mode. i test it and it works well, but for root partition i can
not do the same because root partition can not be unmount in single user
mode.

any hints or comments are really appreciated.
thanks in advance
