Run smartctl with the long self test option or check the file system with badblocks. Details on how to run each program are located here: http://prefetch.net/articles/diskdrives.smart.html http://prefetch.net/blog/index.php/2006/08/27/checking-devices-for-bad-sectors/ Hope this helps, - Ryan -- http://prefetch.net

I was able to correct this issue following the steps in this web site: http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/badblockhowto.html Seems the bad block was used by /var/account/pacct.1 and after fixing this the problem went away. So again thanks to everyone. -- Regards Robert Linux User #296285 http://counter.li.org
