    this is the default error spewed out when the linux file system is not
    clean. (I.E. it was not unmounted properly on the shutdown where it
    ceased working)

    install the sysutils/e2fsprogs port and e2fsck the /dev/ad0s1 (or boot
    linux and use that if it's possible), hopefully that will fix your issue
    :)

    they are random rambling, and to be ignored. Failure to ignore may result in
