However, I dont see an entry for /home in it. Is it possible that your partitions have label names, and that really /, /mnt/data, and /mnt/usnstable are being fscked, but the output refers to the label name? (after all /dev/hda1 is usually root, but later things got changed around ?) Just a guess. dumpe2fs /dev/hdaX | more Will show you the label name on the first line, I think. Paul set@xxxxxxxxx
