Well, I goofed. I unplugged an external fire wire drive without first
ejecting it via the finder.
Now it will not mount on the desktop. Disk utility sees the drive but
when I try to repair it I get the following message:
Repairing disk for "FireWire 80 GB"
Checking HFS Plus volume.
Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.
hash table full (1024 entries)
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit (-9972)
Repair attempted on 1 volume
0 HFS volumes repaired
1 volume could not be repaired
I don't have any other osx disk utilities. Any idea if another utility
(techtool, diskwarrior) might fix the problem?
Thanks.
