When I REboot fsck tells me SOFT UPDATE INCONSISTENCY. So that I must disable soft updates now. Anyone had problems like these before ? Could this be due to the particular RAID hardware? thanks Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
