O-Kay ... here goes.

empeg:/empeg/bin# fsck /drive1
Parallelizing fsck version 1.19 (13-Jul-2000)
e2fsck 1.19, 13-Jul-2000 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09
ext2fs_check_if_mount: No such file or directory while determining whether /drive1 is mounted.
fsck.ext2: Is a directory while trying to open /drive1

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
e2fsck -b 8193 device
A quick cat /etc/fstab reveals:
#

# /etc/fstab
#
#
/dev/hda5 / ext2 defaults,ro 1 1
/dev/hda4 /drive0 ext2 defaults,ro 1 1
none /proc proc defaults
Ooh ... might I need to add /drive1 ???

ls /drive1 does reveal stuff though ... the same structure as /drive0 actually (fids, lost+found, var). drive1's var is empty and drive0 var has config.ini et. al.

At any rate, it looks like /drive1 is part of the root partition. Is this a good thing?

No - wait! mount reveals the truth (I think):
empeg:/sbin# mount

/dev/root on / type ext2 (ro)
none on /proc type proc (rw)
/dev/hda4 on /drive0 type ext2 (rw)
/dev/hdc4 on /drive1 type ext2 (rw)
So now we continue:
empeg:/sbin# fsck /dev/hdc4

Next silly question - should this be in /etc/fstab in the first place? (Something's mounting it, at any rate.)
