Sorry, you're right, I need to be more specific. Here is the message I get when i boot up: -- Can't check filesystem Unexpected inconsistency: run fsck manually Enter full pathname of ehll or RETURN for /bin/sh -- When I run fsck the following message is displayed: -- Can't open /dev/ad0s1a: invalid argument Can't open /dev/ad0s1f: invalid argument Can't open /dev/ad0s1e: invalid argument -- So, as long I'm stil a newbey - can you explane what this exactly means.
