I suspect this is the problem mentioned in the current ERRATA document:
| A bug has been fixed in soft updates that can cause occasional
| filesystem corruption if the system is shut down immediately after
| performing heavy filesystem activities, such as installing a new kernel
| or other software. The system shutdown was unable to flush all buffers
| on shutdown and would report this fact. The problem can be worked around
| by running sync(8) a few times before rebooting, or solved by updating
| to a recent FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE snapshot.
Since I updated, i have had no more of this problems, so you can close
this PR.
CU,
Sec
