We had a nice wind storm up here in sunny Seattle last night, and
the power went off. When it came back on, two FreeBSD systems, one
running -current and the other running -stable, both failed in the
same way to go multi-user. On the "mount -u -o rw /" command in
/etc/rc, each system gave me a screen full of:
WARNING: R/W mount of / denied. Filesystem is not clean - run fsck.
However, in both cases, the automatic fsck had said:
/dev/rsd2a: CLEAN FLAG NOT SET IN SUPERBLOCK (FIXED)
and no other errors. (Yes, my root partition is on sd2 in one of the
systems. Don't ask. :-)
Soft updates are not used on either system.
Any ideas why this happened?
John
