I'm experiencing problems with my ext2 partition also. Even though I had *NO* crashes at all and the machine was *ALWAYS* properly shut down, I was welcomed by a ton of errors when I tried to boot my machine today. Fsck shows everything is fine, but trying to read some files (i probably wouldn't have noticed the problem if one of those files was not a system log) or testing the disk for speed via hdparm (hdparm -tT /dev/hdX) results in failing with the following message logged (sector number changes):
Jul 5 15:26:31 soda kernel: hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } Jul 5 15:26:31 soda kernel: hda: dma_intr: error=0x40 { UncorrectableError }, LBAsect=626563, sector=9666 Jul 5 15:26:31 soda kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:02, sector 9666
I tried disabling DMA but no success (the messages only change from dma_intr to read_intr). I did a 'find / -type f | xargs -n 1 cat >/dev/null' and got an error on a number of files.
The machine is a Cyrix166+ on a Shuttle HOT-557 Spacewalker MB, Linux kernel 2.0.30, disk is Quantum Fireball TM2110A.
Any help would be MUCH appreciated!
