Awh, you may have hit the nail on the head. /dev/ad0s1a on / (ufs, local) devfs on /dev (devfs, local) /dev/ad0s1d on /files (ufs, local, soft-updates) /dev/ad0s1e on /usr (ufs, local, soft-updates) /dev/ad0s1f on /var (ufs, local, soft-updates) /dev/ad0s1g on /web (ufs, local, soft-updates) Soft updates are on. Is that true even in single user mode? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I brought it to single user mode by becoming root and doing a shutdown now, and then trying fsck, no go. So then I did a reboot and selected single user mode, tried fsck as indicated above, still wouldn't write the changes.

How do I get fsck to write the changes necessary? I used to know all this when I admin'd a half dozen boxes for about 5 years but 3 years later with little to no admin chores anymore I've forgotten. Is the error (as such): FREE BLK COUNT(S) WRONG IN SUPERBLK SALVAGE? Because, this is nothing more than an artifact of fsck-ing a live filesystem with softupdates on.

Haven't seen that. But I wonder - is the partition mounted? If you got to single user by rebooting to it, then it should be. But, if you got there any other way (???) it might not be.
