/dev/hda in my little Linux firewall/gateway/server box is dying as I type.
Gotta be the heat. 36C here in Sydney today. Don't think it liked that much.
Fortunately, it's mirrored. Um, was mirrored. Sigh.
It's not dead, mind you; two of the partitions - /usr and, uh, /pixy - have been failed out on one side of the mirror. The other partitions - /, /home, /var and so on - seem happy enough. It may be just a bad sector or two. In fact, I suspect that the same thing happened to the other drives, and once I finish backing everything up I'll be able to confirm that.
Except for the new Maxtor drive, which simply would not format, and has been sent back under warranty.
