Uh oh. :( When you mounted the DOS partition, you didn't by chance get the message: Warning: root is not a multiple of clustersize in length or something like that. You should have stopped immediately and not touched either partition. Unfortunately, you got bit by the bug. :( There isn't much we can do for you. You can try fetching the fixit floppy and rebuilding the disklabel, but if it hit the kernel then the damage may be fairly extensive. > want to loose the setup I had.. took awhile to get it to where I liked it > and everything was working..
