I recommend you always go to SCOUG Help first. I am not the only one
capable of helping you.

Did you boot to one of your other eCS/OS2 installs before this occurred?
If so, you probably neglected to adjust the autocheck parameters, as we
discussed on Sunday.

You have a couple of choices.

You need to boot to a eCS 2.0 beta CD and run chkdsk from there.

Another option is to replace ujfs.dll on your eCS 1.2 volume with the
version on your eCS2.0 volume. They you can run chkdsk from your eCS 1.2
volume to correct the eCS 2.0 volume.
