tunefs problem

[Gunter Wambaugh]

Look at the output from fsck.  It very clearly tells you that it  
found problems, but didn't fix them (probably because the partition  
is mounted).  Notice the following lines:
** /dev/ad2s1a (NO WRITE)
and
CLEAR? no

Boot to single user mode and try it again.

Also, if you add fsck_y_enable="YES" to rc.conf these should be fixed  
automatically at boot (IIRC).
