FIX ? [...] >Maybe I should mention that the error message described above appears for >ALL filesystems (/ and /usr). >Oliver (brand@ibr.cs.tu-bs.de) I have the same thing in all of the mail that crontab sends to root every night... BTW, I get these same messages with just a plain-jane bindist installation with NO special files installed. I run an IDE (Seagate ST3290A 245mb) with DOS only as /dev/wd0, and a SCSI (Adaptec AHA-1522 and a Maxtor 540mb SCSI) as /dev/sd0 with the whole drive allocated for FreeBSD 2.0R. (BTW: To boot, I have a copy of the install floppy, and I manually change the default bootfile to hd(1,a)/kernel - is there any way to change the code on the floppy so that it will default to this value?) I thought it was rather odd that I would get the above error as well... PLUS, if I told it to fix, it would reboot the machine, and then if I ran it again, it would say AGAIN that the flag was wrong. Someone said something about mounted/unmounted; I imagine cron is running while the fs is mounted. So that I would understand. Digame... :) jf
