Description Monty Hall 2009-11-03 04:00:09 UTC
This happens after reboot. All the labels on the external USB 450GB HDD,
which is gjournaled, are erased.  This drive I know works fine and am
pretty sure it's a software issue.  I thought this was a fluke, but I'm
reporting this bug after it happened for the 2nd time.  I've been able
to recover the data by relabeling the disk w/ the same sizes.

Fix: 

If you know the exact label sizes, just renter and untoggle newfs.
How-To-Repeat: Reboot

OMG, I didn't mean LABEL, I meant PARTITION.
