Hard Drive Problems
I am running Sid with 2 matching 40gig drives. Everything has been running
great until I get this message when going and apt-get upgrade:
hdc: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdc: dma_intr: error=0x40 { UncorrectableError }, LBAsect=97055,
sector=96984
hdc is primary master on ide2
here is output of hdparm:
/dev/hdc:
multcount = 16 (on)
IO_support = 1 (32-bit)
unmaskirq = 1 (on)
using_dma = 1 (on)
keepsettings = 0 (off)
readonly = 0 (off)
readahead = 8 (on)
geometry = 4865/255/63, sectors = 78165360, start = 0
It is formatted with ReiserFS and the problem seems to be /dev/hdc1 it is
trying to write to /etc which is hdc1 and this is mounted as /
Could this be a drive going bad or can I fix this with with some software
programs? If it is a drive going bad what would be the best and easiest way
to clone the drive onto another drive it will probably be a bigger drive. I
have used Norton Ghost 2003 with Windows before but does it work with Linux
and ReiserFS?
Thanks for any help/
Brad
