Frank,
Yes, I had that once..  System trap'd, wouldnt mount SYS, ran Vrepair 3 
times..  Lost 1/2 the days work at that point..  Had to recreate the 
partition..  Ran the disk test (destructive) & found no errors on it befor 
restoring..  Funny thing, I couldnt get the mirror disk to come up either..
What ever happen'd, seem'd to effect both disks I guess..
After the 3rd Vrepair, the system would only trap trying to mount SYS..
I think I had to delete all the partitions with DOS's fdisk at that point & 
start from scratch..
