I'm rather astounded.  I'm currently at a Linux conference, and have
of course been boasting about the stability of ufs, and today I had a
crash which tore apart my /home file system.

This is on a laptop, one which has been running -CURRENT for years
with no trouble.  At the moment it's running 5.0-RELEASE.  Today I
shut it down cleanly, and a couple of hours later rebooted it.  It has
three file systems, one of which came up dirty.  fsck -y reported
thousands of errors, and when it was finished, my home directory and
some other files were gone, and all the subdirectories of my home
directory were in lost+found, a total of 1.4 GB.  Most of the errors
appear to be duplicate Inode numbers.

Obviously it's too late to work out what happened, but I thought it's
worth mentioning in case somebody else is having the same trouble.
