Its been running for about 7 days now. I have an internal IDE drive that the OS runs from, then I have two external firewire drives (da0, da1) that are only used as Samba shares. This morning i found that one of the firewire drives are no longer mounted (da1), this might have happened when I uninstalled Samba 2.x and installed 3.x yesterday, then rebooted. but im not sure, because i didnt check to see if the drive was still mounted after the reboot. So i figured i would just mount it again (even though da1 in the fstab).... FileServer# mount /dev/da1s1c /mnt/jabba mount: /dev/da1s1c on /mnt/jabba: incorrect super block So now im not realy sure what to do, this drive was working perfectly before the reboot. someone told me to run fsck on the drive, but that gives me the following error. FileServer# fsck /dev/da1s1c ** /dev/da1s1c Cannot find file system superblock /dev/da1s1c: NOT LABELED AS A BSD FILE SYSTEM (unused) here is what fdisk returns...
