First, it's g_vfs_done, not g_ufs_done -- precision and accuracy are usually important when reporting error messages. In this case the important part is the "error=6". You can look this up in /usr/include/errno.h which says: #define ENXIO 6 /* Device not configured */ which probably means that the device disappeared at runtime. What other messages were logged prior to this? Kris
