Hi, I've just come to install FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE on a new machine. It's got four disks in it, but right now I'm only working with one (ad0), which is a 30GB disk that's been lying about for a bit. I'm getting:
DEBUG: Scanning disk ad0 for swap partitions ad0: hard error cmd=read fsbn 0 status=51 error=04 DEBUG: Signal 11 caught! That's bad! on the debug console just after I hit okay after defining my slices. I'm guessing this is a hardware problem (well, the ``hard error'' gives that away) but does anybody know if this is very serious, or... ? Can I work around it, or is the disk for the bin? Thanks very much, -lewiz. -- I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. --Bob Dylan, 1964. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -| msn:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | jab:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | url:http://lewiz.net |-
