Thank you for the reply, Bill.

Sorry, there is no -c option on fsck for reiserfs, (see man
fsck.reiserfs or man reiserfsck for bad block checking options). Also,
my harddrive does not support S.M.A.R.T. therefore smartctl won't help
me, unfortunately =(

Well, I don't think there is a hardware problem. Anyway, I checked for
bad blocks on the device (/sbin/badblocks -b 4096 /dev/hdb1) and there
are no bad blocks. But I'll use the manufacturer's diagnostic utility
and run the tests, just to be sure.

Thanks,
