it asked me if I wat to fix it and offered something like:

1) do it
2) don't

It did not change the FS in both cases (i.e., I could enter "1" or "2";
it didn't evaluate the input correctly I guess). Running with -a omits
the question.

nope, it just worked like a charm when I ran it with -a :), i.e.n no
memory problems.

Best,
