this is the default error spewed out when the linux file system is not clean. (I.E. it was not unmounted properly on the shutdown where it ceased working) install the sysutils/e2fsprogs port and e2fsck the /dev/ad0s1 (or boot linux and use that if it's possible), hopefully that will fix your issue :) -- -Erik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [http://math.smsu.edu/~erik] The opinions expressed by me are not necessarily opinions.
