Stephen, you dont have odd hardware, raid array or something on that

Check the bios settings for the disk, saw a NT box the other day that
changed its bios setting (cable problem?)
 

Hi Billk,

The drive is connected to a ATA controller.

I can't find out any problem on BIOS and cable.

fdisk -l
has printout

OK, `ls /dev/hda*` probably returns nothing.  Is your drive picked up by
dmesg?  try `dmesg|grep` hda and see if it lists it...
     

# ls /dev/hda3
# ls /dev/hda
no such file
# dmesg| grep  hda

The clock on the Debian box is 02:01AM 11-Feb-2004 here (local time).  
It is correct corresponding to the clock on wall.

       

Could your locale be set wrong?

     

time zone = asia/hong_kong
