Erhm... the drive's fairily recent, it's a "Maxtor 160GB SATA II 7200RPM 8Mb Cache" from 2006. The system does the occasional fsck and the most recent (2-3 days ago) was on /. SMART reported the drive as beying ok, although i barely used it. This only happens if i dist-upgrade my system, so i assume it's some package i have and its pre/post scripts or something similar. -- () ascii-rubanda kampajno - kontraŭ html-a retpoŝto /\ ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
