Rio locked up, and I didn't see any way to get out of it, so I rebooted. Unfortunately, I couldn't even boot up, not even with my boot floppy. kfs...boot: nop...File system main inconsistent Would you like to ream it (y/n)? tag = ;Tdir kfs init 5: FID1 attach to root boot: read nop: file does not exist panic: boot process died: unknown ktrace /kernel/path 8010649e 8026bdb4 8026bd54=801063a3 8026hd64=80171915 ... cpu0: exiting Looks like I am going to have to reinstall the system, unless my terminal is just trying to be sympathetic with Russ's. :-( I have the following questions: 1. If rio crashes is there a way to kill rio and get back to the shell? 2. Given that I could, what diagnostics could I run to identify the problem? 3. Is there a way to repair the disk at this point? 4. Given that you don't have much faith in kfs and some of us are using it exclusively on our standalone terminals, what sort of maintainance, such as disk/kfscmd check, should we be doing? Mark
