You also wanna compare it with what _should_ be there, I guess a "pro" linux box is a bigger fish than any Wintendo for the script-kiddies out there. ..tail -f syslog, hop it up to debug or untill it tells you what's going on, hdparm etc tools that talk with the hardware, it could be anything from a failing disk thru power glitches. ..chk that your destination disk is writeable, df, mount, and even cat /proc/mounts may get this wrong with a dead journal, IMext3-E, chk dumpe2fs or ditto for your own fs, reiserfs, jsf, xfs etc. -- ..med vennlig hilsen = with Kind Regards from Arnt... ;-) ...with a number of polar bear hunters in his ancestry...
