Re: tunefs problem

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).
