Wait. The system will automatically detect a dirty shutdown and check the disks during the boot process. If the disks are only mildly scrambled by the outage, the system will continue to boot and the filesystem check program will run in the background -- you'll notice some disk slowness until fsck is done cleaning things up, but things will be otherwise fine. See the man page for fsck and fsck_ffs for more details. -- Bill Moran http://www.potentialtech.com _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
