>Description:
When fsck encounters a superblock error, it
says:
----------------------------------------
SEARCH FOR ALTERNATE SUPER-BLOCK FAILED.
YOU MUST USE THE -b OPTION TO FSCK TO SPECIFY
THE LOCATION OF AN ALTERNATE SUPER-BLOCK TO
SUPPLY NEEDED INFORMATION; SEE fsck(8).
----------------------------------------
But referring to "fsck(8)" is wrong (there
is no -b option !!).
Instead this should be changed into
"fsck_ffs(8)".
>How-To-Repeat:
-0-
>Fix:
In src/sbin/fsck_ffs/setup.c , line 197
change
SEE fsck(8)
into
SEE fsck_ffs(8)
