[TriLUG] Kernel errors: Hardware failing?

[Tom Woods]

Help again!

I've been getting the following types of errors on hda from LogWatch on my
email server.  Is this normal, or is it an indication that I'm having
hardware issues?  I had some errors on the CD ROM drive (seek errors or
timeouts.. not sure exactly) when I installed RH9, so I'm afraid it may be
the onboard IDE controller.

The errors from yesterday may be from shutting down the server, but I
thought I'd include them here just in case they were related to the hda
problems.  I also wonder if I lost any email.

Thanks,

Tom
