^^^^^^^^^^uh nice, fsck is fscked ;-) thats a setgid, not group executable not world readable block device. > I welcome any suggestion (what else can I do at this point!). Thanks! your filesystem is corrupted, hopefully not too severely but you will need to boot from a rescue floppy to fsck / and then see what is still hosed after that, you will likely need to reinstall e2fsprogs, and perhaps some other packages if you find further corrupted files. what kernel are you running? -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
