SUMMARY: panic when mounting a filesystem

I've got to apologize because Dave gave the solution and I initially
overlooked it. It actually happens that fsck with the force option does
more checks and repairs than without it. Now I can mount the repaired
partition.

I found the same suggestion in a summary related to Solaris 2.3 back in
1997; I found it with a search with the key phrase: "freeing free inode"
which was one of the error messages I got.

I've got also to say thank you to:

Peter Stokes, Grzegorz Bakalarski, Kevin P. Inscoe,
Brett Lymn, Dennis Martens.
