What it's saying is that the partition doesn't appear to contain a file system. Have you repartitioned your disk recently? Are the other partitions on the disk OK? If the answers are "no" and "yes" respectively, you could try this: # fsck -y -b 32 /dev/rwd0s1f This will look at the alternative super block guaranteed to be at block 32. If this doesn't work, please give some information about what you were doing before it happened.
