--- Comment #8 from Kirk McKusick <mckusick@FreeBSD.org> ---
This bug falls into the class of bugs that occur when using journalling.
Specifically, the journal only tracks inconsistencies that can occur based =
on
the order of the write completions to the disk. If the disk lies about write
completions, then the disk will be inconsistent in ways that the journal do=
es
not know. Recovery using journalling is quick, because it only checks the
things that it knows may be wrong. If other errors have occurred, the journ=
al
will not fix them. Running fsck -f ignores the journal and does a full
consistency check of the disk so will find and fix the errors about which t=
he
journal is unaware. When running on lying disks, you should NOT use
journalling. Rather run with just soft updates. After a crash it will take
longer to come back up, but all of the problems will be found and fixed. You
can disable journalling using the command `tunefs -j disable'. When creating
new filesystems, use `newfs -U ...' instead of `newfs -j ...'.
