I rebooted the box and now it is hanging with
Automatic boot in progress: starting file system checks.
/dev/rwd0a: file system is clean; not checking
and that's the last thing it says.
I'm pretty desperate here, there is data on these disks that I cannot
lose since my last backup.
many many thanks in advance,
Gary

Hi,
I have an i386 3.7 release generic box running as a file server in my
home with three hdds, one for os, two for data. We just had a power
surge/outage that lasted a split second but now the box hangs on boot
with the following..
Can't open /dev/rwd1a: Device not configured
CAN'T CHECK FILE SYSTEM.
/dev/rwd1a: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck_ffs MANUALLY.
The boot stops at that point. /dev/rwd1a is one of the data disks. The
other checks fine. Please can someone tell me how to get the box to boot
and how to fix this please.
Thanks in advance
Gary
