Hi,
        I have a MacII with a CDC MAC WREN III 155 Mbytes ( PN#
94161-9 rev. 8804). I recently had a few crashes (while developping an
application).  Right after, the crashes, I ran Disk First Aid 1.4.2 to
make sure every thing was all right. To my surprise, DFA didn't
complain until the end ( I had pressed Cmd-S) when it said that it was
"unable to check disk status".  As I recall when I setup everything,
DFA didn't have any such complaints.

So, what does this message means ?  What could be corrupted and how
can I fix it ?
