I've been having an annoying problem on shutdown for awhile..
After doing a shutdown -r, on reboot the system gives me an
"Invalid disklabel on sd2" (or something like that). Fsck then fails
with an unexpected consistancy (naturally). I can work around this by
immediately rewriting the disklabel, and fscking the filesystem on that
disk. I can then bring the system up to multi-user.
This happens every time I shut down - but only on sd2. sd0, sd1, and
sd3 never have any problems, and I have no other problems with that
disk. sd2 contains only a single ufs filesystem, no swap and no
filesystems for other operating systems. It was partitioned and
disklabeled in a similar manner to sd3 - using the whole disk, with the
ufs filesystem starting at offset 1.
Any ideas on what might be happening here? Am I suffering from brain
damage?
The disktab entry is as follows:
cdc_94171-327|sd2|SCSI disk on sd2:\
:dt=SCSI:ty=winchester:\
:nc#312:ns#32:nt#64:\
