Hi all,
  I'm more used to reading SunOS/Solaris error messages, so I hope you don't
mind if I ask you experts the following....  I couldn't see a comp.os.linux
group for SCSI questions, but if there is one I should be using then please
be gentle in redirecting me... thanks!

Intel dual PII-333 (Dell Poweredge 2200), 2.0.33 kernel

This week my /var/adm/messages file has the following:

Jul 13 03:08:51 nebula kernel: scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid 169222960,

Is my disk on controller 2 id 0 (/dev/sdc - news spool) beginning to go bad?

I rebooted this machine 29 days ago, so I still have the relevant boot
messages...
