If you need fsck for ext2, you could just book a Knoppix (or maybe Slackware)
live CD. No need to install Linux, you should be able to run fsck from the CD,
and that will clear the ext2 partition.
I will also confirm what the other poster said, the correct syntax for mounting
the partition should

After reading more man pages and the chapter "Adding a Disk" from UNIX System
Administration Handbook, 3rd ed. by Nemieth, Snyder, Seebass and Hein, I

I'm trying to decipher the error message:
ext2fs: #ad/0x000a: wrong magic number 0x8b6 (expected 0xef53)
I've been reading

After rebooting, tried again:
huey# mount -t ext2fs /dev/ad1s1 /aduni

ext2fs: /dev/ad1s1: Invalid argument
