How would one test a hard disk with ext2+swap fs to see if its dying?
Ie. discern whether or not its motherboard/ide controller, HDD or corrupted
files..
Also, the server in question is/was a 486DX4/100 PCI/ISA MB so it can't handle
big disks (Probably has 8GB limit) - good place to get "smaller" HDDs?
.. am wanting to get Linux server back up and running - as I'm currently using
the EvilEmpire's Win98SE ICS to share net 'round my LAN, and it's just
downright blackbox nasty :)
