After running newfs on an ide device, fsck produces errors indicating that some number of inodes are partially allocated and others are of an unknown file type (shown below). Could you tell me more about what these messages actually mean and maybe give me some advice on tracking down such file system errors during the fast file system creation in newfs. Any help would be grately appreciated. Rob.
