Those messages look pretty routine and should be handled by the regular fsck done on a normal boot. Usually the regular fsck will run and clean up most simple stuff. Try rebooting the machine again and see if it still has the same messages. If so, then see if they will do the single-user fsck for you. But, I am guessing that it actually already cleaned up for you. ////jerry > > Thanks, > > Matt > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
