Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, My freebsd proxy server crashed for the second time ever - so I thought I'd do a cvsup and recompile/reinstall the kernel. All went well till reboot: The kernel refused to load, stating that the bad block table or something was in an invalid format (I should have written this down - but I expected not to fix it and it was late). Using fixit mode, I fsck'd the disk partitions, but no luck. I then removed the new kernel and copied across the old, and up she came. Any ideas? Perhaps my IDE disk really is on the way out? Eddie.
