Hello-- I was wondering if perhaps someone could help me. In a rush, I turned off my machine a few seconds before it was done, and now my SYSLOG states: === Mar 9 18:47:07 ingress kernel: (read) sda1's sb offset: 4441856 [events: 00000033] Mar 9 18:47:07 ingress kernel: (read) sdb1's sb offset: 4441856 [events: 00000032] Mar 9 18:47:07 ingress kernel: (read) sdc1's sb offset: 4441856 [events: 00000032] Mar 9 18:47:07 ingress kernel: (read) sdd1's sb offset: 4441856 [events: 00000031] Mar 9 18:47:07 ingress kernel: autorun ...
