Well my web server rebooted. I don't know why. I will post another story about the significance of this to me. Anyways, my /home (where all my website docs were located) was not mounted.
The disklabel output was strange:
16 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg/sgs] a: 8192016 63 4.2BSD 2048 16384 27560 # (Cyl. 0*- 8127*) b: 8192016 8192079 swap # (Cyl. 8127*- 16254*) c: 156299312 63 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28752 # (Cyl. 0*- 155058*) d: 156299375 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 155058*) disklabel: partitions a and c overlap disklabel: partitions b and c overlap
The disk is:
Partition table:
0: NetBSD (sysid 169)
start 63, size 156299312 (76318 MB, Cyls 0-10337/62/30), Active
So I did some math with bc: Size of c is 156299375-63 = 156299312. Size of d is already known (entire disk). Size of e is 156299375-16384095 = 139915280. Start of e is 8192079+8192016 = 16384095 (end of swap plus size of swap).
And did with disklabel -e:
16 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg/sgs] a: 8192016 63 4.2BSD 2048 16384 27560 # (Cyl. 0*- 8127*) b: 8192016 8192079 swap # (Cyl. 8127*- 16254*) c: 156299312 63 unused 0 0 d: 156299375 0 unused 0 0 e: 139915280 16384095 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28752 # (Cyl. 0*- 155058*)
I guess I could have used disklabel -i for interactive to have it figure out the offsets and sizes for me. Then I fsck'd it. For some reason the fstab had: /dev/wd0c for the home so I changed to wd0e. Then "mount -a" and another reboot to verify it again. Odd that this weird disklabel was in working and in use for long time.
