I can cd to /sbin and ls shows me that fsck, pdisk and sndvolmix are
there. But when a type them in at the shell prompt, I get a "command not
found".  Trying it as SU doesn't help. What's going on?

Thanks.

Try ./fsck or add . to your PATH

SU doesn't work because you must use
su -
if you want to use the root-environment (as it says in 'man su')

um, I honestly wouldn't add a '.' to my path, I would rather add the
"/sbin" to my path (though both of Matthew's suggestions certianly
would work!)

Depending on your level of paranoia, a "." in your path can lead to bad
bad security problems ;-)
