Had a freeze this morning when in classic. Could do nothing but turn the machine off (which poor old X seems quite unable to handle well, I have had no end of trouble previously re this sort of thing). Using Disk Utility, I checked the X partition (the 9 one was fine) and it had :Invalid key length The volume OS X HD needs to be repaired." I started from a CD with disk utility on and tried to repair the said partition but it could not do it and displayed the same message.
[snip] >> Hi David, "Invalid key length" could be serious. Unless a third party disk utility like DiskWarrior can fix it the prognosis is beyond my experience. The only time I had a "key" problem in OS X I had to reinitialize. Fortunately I had a good backup. Perhaps you can take the problem to the g-list and someone with much more OS X experience than me can offer a solution.
