 Hello,
 
 I got rid of the initial report since this will be logged to GNATS as =
 well it's not needed to reduplicate the info. I have seen this behaviour
 a few times when there were things to fix and it slowed down my system =
 for a little (I dont have that big disks) after which it continued to
 work.
 
 Can you define what you mean with "Syncing forever", how much time did =
 you wait for thinking this? Remember that a 2TB disk is rather
 big and that an FSCK takes a lot of time on those kind of disks. Please =
 wait a little longer to allow the diskcheck to clear before continueing.
 (and one more thing, at least you have access to the system if you have =
 this with lets say WinXP the system will not start before doing the
 check, letting you wait for a long period of time if you are unlucky).
 
 Thanks
 Remko
