Searching for terms such as 'freebsd fsck incorrect free space' and 'freebsd reporting incorrect free space' were obviously not the right things to be searching for in order to bring up the FAQ page in the results. I did not consult it directly. I reiterate; perhaps the operating system could have been more helpful (by way of fsck being able to detect this problem or by having more details of the problem logged to /var/log/messages) because it was not obvious in the first instance that the FreeBSD FAQ was to be my first port of call. Next time you see me post any request to this list, you can be assured I will have checked the FAQ most thoroughly.
