Hello,
I managed to mess up my NetBSD partition table on a
386 NetBSD-0.9 machine. I figured out the size of the root
partition and now I am trying to figure out the offset to the
/usr partition. I remember I had a root partition, a swap
partition and a /usr partition. I can mount the drive and
look through it with dd. I thought about searching for the
magic number at the beginning of the superblock but I cannot
find anywhere documentation on exactly what I should be looking
for. Does anyone have any suggestions on a way to figure out
where the beginning of the /usr partition is.
Thanks,
Odysseas
