Reboot is prevented by hardware failure: the mail disk super block has
died.
---
what operating system has a single superblock on it's filesystems? there
should be as much superblocks as there are cylinder groups on a berkeley
based fs.
from the FFS/UFS manpage on freebsd-4.3-stable:
---
A file system is described by its super-block, which in turn describes
the cylinder groups. The super-block is critical data and is replicated
in each cylinder group to protect against catastrophic loss. This is
done at file system creation time and the critical super-block data does
not change, so the copies need not be referenced further unless disaster
strikes.
---
open-/netbsd should be pretty much the same
