this doesn't have to mean much.

I recently wanted to install OpenBSD on a machine which also claimed to
have all file systems clean, but emitted spurious error messages in
white-on-blue on the screen nevertheless. Running fsck -f on the file
system revealed that it *was* corrupted, and trying to repair it
failed, repeatedly, always with the same error messages. I concluded
that the drive was bad.


Kind regards,
