FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE-p2 #15

I've been using the image for some time and was well until a UPS
failure.

Here is the script I use to mount the encrypted file image

++++++++++++

mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /home/staff/mikej/image md0
geli attach -k /etc/gli/image.key /dev/md0c
mount /dev/md0c.eli /private

++++++++++++

It fails to mount and I see this is dmesg

GEOM_ELI: Device md0c.eli created.
GEOM_ELI: Encryption: AES-CBC 128
GEOM_ELI:     Crypto: software
WARNING: R/W mount of /private denied.  Filesystem is not clean - run
fsck

++++++++++++

So... I mount -ro

mount -o ro /dev/md0c.eli  /private
(root@firewall) /home/staff/mikej/bin# fsck -t ufs /dev/md0c.eli 
** /dev/md0c.eli (NO WRITE)
** Last Mounted on /private
** Phase 1 - Check Blocks and Sizes
** Phase 2 - Check Pathnames
** Phase 3 - Check Connectivity
** Phase 4 - Check Reference Counts
** Phase 5 - Check Cyl groups
16 files, 254176 used, 1034826 free (14 frags, 258703 blocks, 0.0%
fragmentation)
(root@firewall) /home/staff/mikej/bin#

But this does not mark the file system clean. If I then un-mount
/dev/md0c.eli it still refuses to mount R/W.

(root@firewall) /private# df -h
Filesystem       Size    Used   Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/twed0s1a    1.1T    883G    109G    89%    /
devfs            1.0K    1.0K      0B   100%    /dev
linprocfs        4.0K    4.0K      0B   100%    /usr/compat/linux/proc
devfs            1.0K    1.0K      0B   100%    /var/named/dev
/dev/md0c.eli    4.9G    993M    3.6G    21%    /private
(root@firewall) /private#

When mount R/O I can read data fine. How do you fsck a GELI image?

Thanks
