Done. Followed http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq4.html#bsd.rd part of the FAQ, and ripped the 3.8 bsd.rd from the usa.openbsd.org server. Just for info, the bsd.38.rd reports the same df as the others... Ok, this is strange: =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- # fsck /dev/rwd0d ** /dev/rwd0d ** File system is clean; not checking # fsck -f /dev/rwd0d ** /dev/rwd0d ** File system is already clean cannot alloc 4294966928 bytes for inphead # fsck -f /dev/wd0d ** /dev/wd0d ** File system is already clean cannot alloc 4294966928 bytes for inphead # =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- I hope that helps some.. If there is anything else you'd like from this box just let me know!
