WARNING: Unable to repair the / filesystem. Run fsck

Cause

This message comes at boot time from the /etc/rcS script whenever it gets a bad return code from fsck(1M) after checking a filesystem. The message recommends an fsck(1M) command line, and instructs you to exit the shell when done to continue booting. Then the script places the system in single-user mode so fsck(1M) can be run effectively.

Action

See "/dev/rdsk/variable: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY" for information about repairing UFS filesystems.

See "THE FOLLOWING FILE SYSTEM(S) HAD AN UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY" for information about repairing non-UFS filesystems.
