It prompted me to enter my password, which I did blindly again, then nothing.

sudo /Applications/Utilities/HFSDebug/hfsdebug -v -V "/Volumes/External HD 1"

 

[CrzyCanuck72]

is that all one line, or should I split it somewhere? I tried it as one line and got nothing.

 

[cube]

Just copy from here, paste in the terminal, and press enter.

 

[CrzyCanuck72]

nothing...no password promt, nothing.

 

[cube]

Are you getting the terminal prompt where you're pasting?

 

[CrzyCanuck72]

I got it where I pasted, then I hit enter, and it goes to a blank line (no prompt)

 

[cube]

sudo remembers the password for some minutes.

It seems hfsdebug has trouble getting the information from this file system.

Is this volume working or you're just seeing it in Disk Utility?

Looks like I would stop writing to it if I were you.

 

[CrzyCanuck72]

no, it's working fine..well, thanks for all your help, I appreciate it...hopefully this sorts itself out!

 

[cube]

I think with external it might be a bit different.

Maybe ejecting is too much. Just unmount the partition and run:

disktool -p disk2s10
sudo /Applications/Utilities/HFSDebug/hfsdebug -v -d /dev/rdisk2s10
