Before doing what I list below, I would do a Ctrl-C to get into special boot options, then do a maintenance boot and do an environment status chassis -- Check on your batteries and battery temp.
I believe the course of action here is to run a Ctrl-C for special boot options. When given the prompt 1-5, do not choose any. Instead, type: WAFL_check -z -- It'll ask which volumes you want to WAFL_check. Just do vol0. Follow the prompts from there. Cross your fingers. And hope. :)
Thanks, John.

Hey guys,
I ran into a problem just now with an inconsistent volume. I believe it was due to the nvram batteries not being in full contact on the nvram card. I reset the batteries and made sure there was contact, I booted up, got a 'dirty shutdown' message and a not about possible data loss. Now, Im stuck at this:
rc:ALERT]: Volume vol0 is inconsistent. Please contact.
PANIC: Root volume vol0 cannot be mounted. Please run WAFL_check in process rc5 So, what should my next course of action be?
Thanks
