I really don't feel like reinstalling tonite.  I had a bad powersupply

now I get NO WRITE in big letters as the first output from fsck, and
it never fixes anything.  I tried of course, and I very well can write
to /var, so fsck is confused.  Other than wiping it, do I have any
options?  fsck does not have a 'force write' option that I can see.
Did I forget some crucial step?  It's just a plain old ufs2 drive on
the motherboard pata.

Don't mount before fsck.
