boot section corruption

hi all:

it is a just general question for freebsd/unix.

i got puzzled when sometime the freebsd either failed to=A0 mount a slice, =
gets into mountroot> prompt or even worse, corrupted the whole boot section=
 and gets into db> mode.besides the recovery procedures, i am more interest=
ed in knowing how those scenarios might happen and what we can do to preven=
t them to happen.

thanks

_dave
