Re.
Yes, I do.

Now donīt show this messages "Check file system..."

I' try

# fsck -ofull

and

# fsck -ofull /dev/boot

And "OK to check the root file system (/dev/root)" dont't show anymore.

This is a problem whithout solution?

Boot the machine to single user mode, then cd to /etc/rc2.d/messages and look at the log files from each procedure to see if there is any more information about the failure.
Worst case: if you mount all the file systems, you can do a backup of the entire system and re-install the operating system.
