You need more powerful disk utilities. Extent files will get you every time. Sometimes Apple Disk utility doesn't have enough horse power to fix this sort of thing.

Try disk warrior and/or drive X.

I got it booted from the CD and ran disk utility. There was a problem, but several repairs did not work. Verification reports the following problem(s): "Overlapped Extent Allocation (file ------d)" There are 39 files listed 235269d, 185499d through 185537d (but not 185519d), and 193208d. Any ideas what these are? As I said, several repairs did not change anything. (BTW, I tried zapping the PRAM last night, but no change). Finally it hung up while verifying and I had to do a force restart. It restarted in classic (9.2), and then I was able to switch to 10.2 and restart again, but the same problem exists. Where do I go from here??
