WOW,  :)

Thanks to all that have responded so quickly.  I am amazed how fast
everyone was in answering my posting on the fsck problem I was having
under Solaris 7.

Here is the genral consensus:

Quoted from Craig Raskin email.  (Thanks)

Something you should look into is changing the drives to mounting
as a logging filesystem. This option is present in 7 and 8. It will turn
the drive into a journaling filesystem and get rid of the need to do
fsck's. It makes the machine boot much faster. In order to do it, add
'logging' to the mount options in /etc/vfstab. You will need to unmount
the drives and remount them for it to take effect (or reboot).

mount -o logging
Man mount_ufs

Thanks Again to everyone.


Dave
