Thanks Neo. I do beleive that it is a bad sector on the disk itself and not a file system error. Over the weekend I brought it down and marked the secotr as bad. This cleaned up the entries in the messages file but I still don't know if I can recover the pkginfo data. The problem with replacing the disk is that it is the root disk on a server which needs to be up 100% of the time. We have a hard time rebooting it much less swapping the disk and installing the OS etc.
Thanks again.
Chuck
