[ale] Can't Boot! Need Super Block Wizard

[mdkliman at aol.com]

Robert,

I know the root password, but have no idea what utility to run.  The system is where it failed, except that the rdrives that couldn't be accessed are now back online.

I'm in Norcross and am looking for someone to come onsite and help.  Any nominations?

Marvin

When the system failed, the disk drives weren't on-line.  Now they are. 
  
The full error message is: 
  
An error occurred during the file system check.

What did the system say just above this (like Scott said, there is likely the real issue).


Dropping you to a shell; the system will reboot when you leave the shell. 
Give root password for maintenance (or type Ctrl-D to continue); 
What was done at this prompt? (hint: IMHO it should have been entering the root password to fix the above issue, NOT hitting ctrl-D).
