Ok, then try a rescue disk like the knoppix I posted and see what you can mount and rescue.
Or put the surviving disc into a linux box and check if you can mount the filesystems there and rescue them.

I've just replaced the secondary disk drive (was 4 Gb) with a Seagate Barracuda 7200 200 Gb. However the OS seems to think this is only 500 Mb and a spin speed of 5400, although it correct recognises the drive as Seagate ST3200822A.
I take it that it still thinks the old drive is attached. How... (5 Replies)

Hi,
I have a crappy hard disk and am trying to back up stuff from it onto my newer hopefully less crappy disk. There are dead sectors on the disk and some files can't be read (at all) so OpenBSD downgrades the transfer mode down until PIO mode 4. I noticed the transfer speed slowing down... (0 Replies)

bootparamd
BOOTPARAMD(8) BSD System Manager's Manual BOOTPARAMD(8)
NAME
bootparamd -- boot parameter server
SYNOPSIS
bootparamd [-ds] [-r router] [-f file]
DESCRIPTION
The bootparamd utility is a server process that provides information to diskless(8) clients necessary for booting. It consults the
/etc/bootparams file.
This version will allow the use of aliases on the hostname in the /etc/bootparams file. The returned hostname to the whoami request done by
the booting client will be the name that appears in /etc/bootparams and not the canonical name. In this way you can keep the answer short
enough so that machines that cannot handle long hostnames will not fail during boot.
OPTIONS
-d Display the debugging information.
-s Log the debugging information with syslog(3).
-r router The default router (a machine or an IP-address). This defaults to the machine running the server.
-f file The file to use as boot parameter file instead of /etc/bootparams.
FILES
/etc/bootparams default boot parameter file
EXAMPLES
When netbooting diskless SunOS/Xkernel SPARCstations the booted SunOS kernel also broadcasts to the all-0 address. The SunOS kernel hangs
until it receives a reply. To accommodate this behaviour add an alias address that responds to an all-0 broadcast. So, add something like
'ifconfig xl0 192.168.200.254 netmask 255.255.255.255 broadcast 192.168.200.0 alias' on the relevant network interface on your bootparamd
server. The alias address must of course be free for use.

BUGS
You may find the syslog(3) loggings to be verbose.
