I am currently running my server in the rescue mode, due to the firewall issues. In order to disable the firewall thing I would have to mount the / partition.

My problem is that I dont know/remember what is the partition name to mount. I though that would be the /dev/ada0 (as on my similar server bought at the same time) but there is no such partition: 

mount /dev/ada0 /mnt
mount: /dev/ada0: Invalid argument

OVH web tutorial is saying that its possible to check the partition table via the fdisk -l command - however, wont work on the FreeBSD: 

# fdisk -l
fdisk: illegal option -- l

Is there an other possibility to check the partition table?

I have found a nice work-around for that if anyone would be interested:

Go to the # sade then choose Label. Everything will be shown nicely. Once finished you may exit with Q.

EDIT: as @DeerHunter points out, I answered the wrong question. Read on if you want to know how to find out the last mount point a file system was mounted at.

It (the last mount point) is printed at the beginning of the fsck output. Lke this:

root@machine:~ # fsck_ufs /dev/md4
** /dev/md4 (NO WRITE)
** Last Mounted on /db
** Phase 1 - Check Blocks and Sizes
** Phase 2 - Check Pathnames
** Phase 3 - Check Connectivity
** Phase 4 - Check Reference Counts
** Phase 5 - Check Cyl groups
