Also, after booting into my updated version of test3, there were some 
inodes removed from /boot1 LABELed drive. There were about 4 inodes that 
needed to be corrected.

I don't know if this problem is related to the updates, my washed out 
message from /boot1 or just a failing drive.

This isn't normal behavior for this system. The files looked alright on 
the partition. Lost + found is empty.
