Hi Jonathan, if you load the filled.mgz you should be able to see whether the cerebellum is still attached, if so you might want to either edit the wm.mgz, the brainmask, or make sure pons and cc were properly detected. For my non-human subjects I have to always check the filled.mgz before running the actual surface reconstruction otherwise every single one of them will try to reconstruct the cerebellum, while taking an eternity.
