Oh yes, very common scenario. Booted just for fun, see below.

Welcome to Tnix Version 2.1 (rev b) on an 11/73


We recommend that you check the file system after TNIX has been
restarted. ( Checking the file system takes about 5 minutes for a minimum
system of files, longer for more files. )

Do you want to check the file system at this time?
Enter y for yes, n for no, or question mark for more information : y

The standard TNIX syschk command reports any problems with
the file system, but does not fix them.

The Standalone Utilities syschk command reports any problems with the file
system, and queries you on how to fix the problems.

Which file system checker?
   1) standard TNIX syschk             (reports problems)
   2) Standalone Utilities syschk      (fixes problems)

Please enter a number: 1
checking /dev/rhd0:
  ...checking i-nodes and directory entries...
  ...checking tree structure...
  ...checking free list...
  free list is ok.  rebuild free list?  (y or n): n

  75349 total blocks in filesystem
  0 bad blocks (0 percent)
  44112 free blocks (58 percent)
  22491 free i-nodes (89 percent)


TNIX shows the current date and time as

When you see the login prompt, you can enter your login name, 
"manager", or "root".

login: your login name  Logs you into your personal account. The account
                        must already have been created by the system
                        manager.

login: manager          Displays  information about common system manager
                        tasks, and information about the "root" account.

login: root             Logs you in to the "root" account -- the account
                        used to maintain system files.  As root, you have 
                        full access to all files on the system, and no 
                        restrictions as to what you can do with the files. 
                        We recommend that you limit access to the root account,
                        and that you assign a password to the root account.

login: root
