You can't/shouldn't fsck them if they're mounted. Make sure they're not mounted first. Additionally, if your securelevel is high, you can't fsck them no matter what, as the securelevel will prevent direct access to raw devices. You'll have to temporarily lower the securelevel in order to fsck them. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
