Subject:   can not clean file system, manual fsck does not help

hi sirs,

this morning, i have some problems during booting machine.
the system stops at some point and needs manual fsck for some file
systems.

i hit RETURN for /bin/sh as suggested by os.
i do fsck for the file system that needs manual fsck but i get fsck.core
instead of a clean file system.

i do control-d and/or exit but the system won't go.
my instinct suggest me that 'why not put a comment on /etc/fstab entry 
that has problem' and o do that.

now exit and the system comes up with minimal capability.

before going on further, please have a look at my 'uname -a' result below

FreeBSD parwati.oaep.go.th 4.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE #5: Fri Jun 16 10:53:52 ICT 2000     root@parwati.oaep.go.th:/usr/src/sys/compile/ParWaTi  i386

and also please have a look at my /etc/fstab below

# Device		Mountpoint	FStype	Options		Dump	Pass#
/dev/ad0s1b		none		swap	sw		0	0
/dev/ad0s1a		/		ufs	rw		1	1
/dev/ad0s1h		/usr		ufs	rw		2	2
#/dev/ad1s1e		/usr/X11R6		ufs	rw		2	2
/dev/ad0s1e		/usr/home		ufs	rw		2	2
/dev/ad0s1f		/usr/local		ufs	rw		2	2

/dev/ad1s1f		/usr/src		ufs	rw		2	2
/dev/ad0s1g		/var		ufs	rw		2	2
/dev/acd0c		/cdrom	cd9660	ro,noauto	0	0
proc			/proc		procfs	rw		0	0

the file system that has problem is marked with #, that is /dev/ad1s1e and
the mount poit is /usr/X11R6.


my question is that is there anyway to bring the system up normally
without doing in such a way what i have done ?

i urgent need your help since i  use a lot of X windows system
but i can not use them.

many thanks in advance for your helps and hints.

with regards,
psr
