However, my filesystem is: /dev/aacd0s1e 369189226 315687202 23966886 93% 42043399 5672951 88% /mnt/mount1 ... less than 400 GB. Further, I have 2 GB of real memory and 4 GB of swap. The system is a 6.0-RELEASE install. What can I do to get more visibility on this error - what diagnostics can I look at ? What is the solution to this problem ? Is there a way to run fsck and purposefully give it more resources ? Thank you.
