Hi!

I have a laptop Libretto 100CT (does'nt have any CD-Rom) and I installed
BSd release 4.2 and it wsa working fine and to power off I was using

# /sbin/shutdown -h now

and after that I manually switch off the power (though I do not know is it
the right way to do it). Yesterday when I did this and after that I reboot
the m/c then I got the message that file system is not clean and then I
ran fsck manually and then i found that I do not know should I say yes or
no to all these questions so I left it in between and then read some FAQ
and found that I should run

fsck -y /dev/ad01f as I got error with this file system only and then I
got the message and I reboot the machine I did not do any thing after this
command just reboot after the file system clean message.

Now if I do ping it says that can'nt resolve and if I use IP adress then I
get message that route not found.

I am also getting some messages during boot time that some files are
missing. 

Please first of all telll me that how can i avoid this to happen in the
future. Do I have to reload the BSD, I am using it from my school in DHCP
mode.

Thanks,

Harkirat
