I've got a /usr partition with some problems. During boot it fails and I'm 
prompted to run fsck manually. I do so and when fsck has finished it asks 
me to run it again, and again, and again...it seems to find the same errors 
each time. It never seems to repair anything. It worked fine on errors it 
found on the /var partition... I checked the man pages and didn't see 
anything pertinent. How can I fix this partition?


And now for something completely different.... If I can't get the /usr 
partition to work is there any way to recreate the user directories from 
the password file? The contents will be lost but nobody uses their folder 
anyway, I just need all the /usr/home folders created... I could write a 
script, but I thought I'd check first to see if something already exists.......
