I ended up finding a emergency boot disk for freebsd and mounted it
and transfered the data off the drive.  I'm just going to format the
/dev/sda4 with ext3.
The drive was formated as a ufs format.  For some reason my linux box
was having issues reading the partition.    In any case I resolved the
issue.
