Question fsck not working in single user mode

My solaris10 machine suddenly hanged and when i rebooted it gave me warnings like
"WARNING: Unexpected token ' ' on line 10 of /platform/sun4u/kernel/drv/sf.conf "
and many more.
I went into the single user mode by
#boot cdrom -s
I tried executing fsck -y there.But it did not work.
It does not give me any error...but it just comes back to the prompt wothout displaying anything..

Now when i tried booting from cd it gave me errors like
WARNING:/usr/sbin/2fs mount -a failed
svc:/system/filesystem/local:default method /lib/svc/method/fs -local" failed

what could be the problem?
Any suggestions of how i can resolve this issue?
HELP ME!!

wild thought:
the -y option in fsck is for "Assume a yes response to all questions asked by fsck".

Could it be that here is your problem. Try to run in without -y.
