Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi folks, We had an unexpected power outage that left the filesystem on one of my boxes corrupted enough to need a manual fsck to come up. My problem now is that fsck dumps core at the same point repeatedly at the same point. As a result, I have no /usr partition. Doh! Does anyone have any suggestions? Am I SOL? If someone out there wants to debug the problem so that it is fixed, I would be more than glad to assist. A core dumping fsck is a _very_ scary thing to have on ones system. This is not an important machine, so I am not pressured to fix it immediately. I'd like to resolve the problem properly before forgetting about it. Lastly, it is a 2.2-STABLE-980118 based system. thanks, Adrian -- adrian@virginia.edu ---->>>>| If I were stranded on a desert island, and System Administrator --->>>| I could only have one OS for my computer, Neurosurgical Visualization Lab ->>| it would be FreeBSD.
