Hi, I have FreeBSD 2.2.8 installed on 4 Gb. Seagate IDE disk, which is jumpered as the secondary master on my P166-MMX system. The installation is only a few days old. I recompiled the kernel yesterday, and ever since 'shutdown' does not work properly. The disks refuse to sync. I get a series of '7's and '4's and 'giving up'. This implies that a filesystem check is performed every time I reboot, rather painful, given that I have a 3966 Mb. /usr partition. What could be the problem ? If this is an FAQ, I'm sorry, but I haven't found mention of anything like this happening anywhere. Please Cc: replies to me, since I'm not on this mailing list. Thanks. - K.
