Perhaps they aren't. :( Maybe fsck is failing to clean your filesystem or something ? A boot -s followed by a successful fsck should get rid of them. I was seeing them at Usenix and mentioned it to Kirk. He explained their nature -- ie, you've just got some blocks and inodes marked in use that shouldn't be. Or maybe these numbers are the only thing corrupt about your fs.... so they're not being re-written after fsck finishes ??? > > Ciao, > > Sheldon. > > -- > > John Baldwin -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ > PGP Key: http://www.baldwin.cx/~john/pgpkey.asc > "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ -- Brian http://www.freebsd-services.com/ Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour !
