i got , after running fsck -p

THE FOLLOWING FILE SYSTEM HAD AN UNEXPECTED
INCONSISTENCY:

       /dev/ad0s2g (/home)

so that i ran fsck and the following messages come

Phase 1
ad0s2g: hard error reading fsbn 98971950 of
21364912-21365023( ad0s2 nb 98971950; cn 6160 tn 183
sn 21) status=59 error=40;

CAN NOT READ: BLK 21364912
continue? [yn]

i had to hit y and a few messages simila to the above
popped up and before Phase 2 started, i got

FILE SYSTEM STILL DIRTY
PLEASE RERUN fsck MANULLY.

at this ponit i had to edit /etc/fstab and put /home
as read only in order to bring system up and running.
