If this understanding of what your saying here is correct, then this is the problem: a r/w mounted fs is a) never "clean" (in terms of a fsck that takes some time to run) because it changes with every operation and b) should never be checked in that way (that's exactly what fsck means when telling you "NO WRITE"). If a second fsck on the unmounted partition in single user does not show=20 any problems anymore you can consider the filesystem clean. UFS2=20 (FreeBSD 5 and it's successors) can be checked "online" by fsck=20 background mode (-B switch of fsck), but you should not need it. - Oliver --zROEGoKAXsG5UqGB Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFEaHojiqtMdzjafykRAshcAKCP7vkYFjFvLgAfcJ7XYVWrcg65vACfd8Xx 6jiM+HiMXbNmcl3bF+GL/5k= =P+OB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --zROEGoKAXsG5UqGB--
