    because os9 wasn't based off unix.

    new system under the hood entirely.

    at boot, hold control-s or whatever your mac keys are...this boots into 'single-user' mode.

    once the screen stops scrolling and you get to the command line, simply execute the command...

    /sbin/fsck [options]

    you may need to know your device node...in linux this could be

    $ fsck /dev/hda1

    or something like that...i'm not sure about mac device nodes
