[QUOTE="sammsousa, post: 1697978, member: 336313"] thanks for the input. i honestly dont know if it did what it was suposed to. after pressing command s, and waiting until the text stopped scrolling down, i didn't get 'root#'. i typed '/sbin/fsck -fy' anyways, and it started running a test (i think), but i don't think that it tested the main HD (even though, i don't have anything else plugged in). in the end i got a message saying 'The volume Recovery HD appears to be OK'. my HD is Macintosh HD, so i'm assuming it didn't check the right one. What is Recovery HD? its only 600 mbs and i didnt have a second partition or anything like that. [/QUOTE]
