Hello all, My harddrive crashed when I got in this morning. Right now, manually running fsck /dev/hdb never finished, I would get read error (short read, etc), bad/duplicate something, and then the screen will scroll with all kind of numbers (like the screen of a terminal on the Matrix movie.. :) )
I can mount the drive though, although some data can't be read. I guess my only solution is to try recover whatever can be recovered from there and re-format the harddrive. But my question , is this a hardware/HD failure? because if it's, it might not be worth it to use the HD again, better just replace it, since the server is our development database server. Here is the log from /var/log/message. I asked help to interpret this. Thanks for your help.
