Re: [SOLVED] Can't mount root partition after rebuilding kernel with DKWEDGE_METHOD_MBR



Hi.

I looked back into the disklabel. Then I found mbrlabel(8) mentioned in this (https://silas.net.br/tech/netbsd/netbsd-tips.html). But, I didn't see this command popping up in similar questions, so I was hesitated to try, in fear that maybe I'm blindly executing it.

I also made a post on the NetBSD reddit where I got a "confirmation" (sorry, I didn't know the right word) that I should use mbrlabel. I did 'mbrlabel -r -w wd0' and the partition I need to mount is now on /dev/wd0e.

#        size    offset     fstype
 a:  60835840   6557696     4.2BSD
 b:   6270976  67393536       swap
 c:  67106816   6557696     unused
 d: 976771055         0     unused
 e:    262144      2048 Linux Ext2

I wanna thank you, Brad and Martin for helping me with this problem. This is my first time writing to a mailing list so I was really nervous.
