Hi! I thought that it's not appropriate to post this message again in this New Group but I am in trouble that's why I am posting it here, I request for a reply, ....I have a laptop Libretto 100CT (does'nt have any CD-Rom) and I installed BSd release 4.2 and it was working fine and to power off I was using # /sbin/shutdown -h now and after that I manually switch off the power (though I do not know is it the right way to do it). Yesterday when I did this and after that I reboot the m/c then I got the message that file system is not clean and then I ran fsck manually and then i found that I do not know should I say yes or no to all these questions so I left it in between and then read some FAQ and found that I should run fsck -y /dev/ad01f (a friend advised me) as I got error with this file system only and I reboot the machine I did not do any thing after this command just reboot after the file system clean message. Now if I do ping it says that can'nt resolve and if I use IP adress then I get message that route not found. I am also getting some messages during boot time that some files are missing. Also on "ifconfig" I do not get ep0 means something with ethernet but I do not know how to fix it. Also if I run fsck -p I get message /dev/ad0s1a: NO WRITE ACCESS .dev/ad0s1a: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck manually. Please telll me that how can i avoid this to happen in the future and solve it right now. Do I have to reload the BSD.
