Yes, I've seen such happen in my A1200's. Just leave it alone until it has finished. If it doesn't sort itself out, then post again. In fact post again either way - it would be nice to know that it works.

What size is the HD in your A600. Remember that the machine is only a 68000 at 7MHz as standard, and that will take a while to validate a large disk.

Also MTBF refers to constant use, if you turn the machine off for, say, 16 hours each day then your life extends to 18 years - but also more wear happens when switching on that at any other time.
