Hi All,
I noticed this in dmesg the other day
hda: drive_cmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: drive_cmd: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
ide: failed opcode was: 0xb0
and i have started to get corrupted data off of it. I assume it is dying,
but thought to ask, as its rather new
vance!
From what I have read xfs and jfs can corrupt data quickly if the drive
is not properly unmounted first (ie, forced reboot, power outage)
People generally stick with ext3 because there is more support for it.
