Ok looks like there is a problem {or I am having one} with fsck.

I believe that fsck is corrupting my HD...

UGH!!!

I ran it after a system crash.... and now it won't boot anymore....
A slew of errors ran by... as fsck ran... then files were missing...

UGH!!!

Onto my 5th rebuild now...

I understand that error would be very annoying, but there is not need to spam it all over the board. anyone who can do anything about it watches the whole board.

Just to fan the flames, it's unlikely that your problem is fsck. The job of fsck is to put the filesystem into a consistent state. If your computer crashed and fsck deleted a bunch of files, it's more likely that the crash caused Bad Things to Happen with those files.

You need to look to the cause of the crash first. It could indicate a hardware problem of some kind, or an interrupt being shared between devices that don't want to play nice. (Like maybe a disk controller and something else?)
