Here's some questions: If the server was idle (e.g. absolutely no processes running aside from login shell and terminal and no disk access occurring) does it make sense that the filesystem would have had a problem after being improperly unmounted? Also, how long should an 'fsck' on a 500GB partition take? It's been running for almost 12 hours now, and the latest output is still "Phase 1 - check blocks and sizes"; is something wrong or is fsck still doing its thing?
