I just had the same problem as someone else on the list where I booted after a make world and new kernel, and then fsck reported the filesystems clean but mount said they were dirty. I booted from the old kernel, installed and ran the new MAKEDEV and the new kernel ran fine. This is on a 386. Phk just recommended running MAKEDEV to the othe person with this problem. David.
