fsck seemed to hang upon boot, and a single-user mode fsck returns a 
swap error.

Any ideas?  Should I even waste anymore time with this, or just do a 
new install?
There are a few major problems with the NTFS code at this time. I've 
been able
to produce several panic's while attempting to utilize the code. I 
would recommend
against casual use of mounting NTFS disks at this time until a few of 
the problems
can be fixed. I'd also be happy to test fixes you might come up with.
