Yes, this is actually the autoboot fsck thats breaking, the one that is called from /etc/rc (via /etc/rc.d/). I can physically take the box down and do an offline fsck of it and that works fine, it's just when it's in multi-user mode thats the problem.

For fsck to work (to actually correct any problems you may have), partitions should be umounted first. Are you sure you have umounted /dev/twedXXXX before running fsck?

    Hello,

    I have an interesting question, I have a Pentium 4 2.4Ghz (No HT
    Enabled),
    2x80GB SATA Hard Drives in RAID 1. The box boots, works, etc. However,
    whenever you try and do an fsck -y, it says:

    The drives are Seagate SATA's (7200RPM) with a 3Ware SATA RAID
    Controller
    (8006-2LP) using the twe kernel driver. The drives themselves allow data
    to be read to/written from them, but fsck will not work (and is hanging
    things on boot).

    Anyone got any ideas? I looked at www.3ware.com
    <http://www.3ware.com> earlier and it says that
    the 8006-2LP's support FreeBSD 4.x, but not 5.x - could this be a result
    of that, seeing as otherwise the drives/RAID work fine (AFAIK, it could
    not be and I'm just not sure how to test it).

    TIA,
