Subject:   PLEASE HELP!:  Bad file descriptor in / filesystem

Hi all,

	I think my / filesystem is corrupted.  A ls -l in /etc shows 
something like this:

ls: aliases: Bad file descriptor
ls: passwd: Bad file descriptor
ls: master.passwd: Bad file descriptor ...and on

	Just a wishful thinking, is there any good way to fix/recover / 
without newfs/restore my root partition?  If not, before I make an 
attempt at restoring the filesystem from tape, what do I need to watch 
out for in restoring A root partition?  It would be nice if I can get an 
example or two!  
 
Thanks!

Brian Wang
