I've been seeing similar fsck behavior here. I was trying out the various softupdate patches (the latest patches work). With the earlier patches, I'd start make -j8 buildworld on the console and it would crash in about 10-15 minutes. Using X at the same time seemed to make it crash a lot faster. This was just days before the CAM integration (Sept 14 and earlier). After the crash, it would detect and automatically "fsck -p" the volumes, then mount and run. Occasionally, some directory, usually under the /usr/obj volume, could not be deleted and it wasn't a schg-flags dir. The only fix was to go back to single-user mode, run "fsck -y" which then complains about and fixes a directory with the wrong inode count (1 instead of 2 I think) then continues. After the 2nd fsck (perhaps after the 1st too - my memory is already fuzzy), there would be stuff under lost+found. There was definitely stuff appearing under lost+found with softupdates enabled. (Right now I'm having troubles with the new 7880 CAM code and so can't replicate the earlier problems, plus the new softupdates patches seem to be working or at least working around the real problem. :-) -- Parag To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
