Jim,
You aren't using an SMC EZ PCI network card are you?
I had a box do the same thing to me...it was working fine until I
changed the NIC, then I started getting the same error message you are
seeing. I tried a new HD, a new MB (onboard HDD), a different OS
(FreeBSD, then back to Debian Linux)...finally I put the ISA NIC back in
the box and all has been well for abt 2 months.
I don't understand what the relationship between the NIC and hard drive
errors is, but the NIC was the only thing changed before the problem,
and the last thing changed before the problem went away.
