Question:
Hi!! As you can see I am in an RT (w20-575-19). I received a lot of errors
today during login, when I usually don't. I have not done any changes to my 
dot files during my last login.

One of the messages that I received though caught my eye:

13:46 HD: Hard Disk I/O Error
13:46 hd: hd0g bn=65236 Err=0x40<DATA-CRC> Status=0x49<ERROR,DATA-REQ,DRIVE-READY> Cyl=511 Hd=6 Sect=5 SCT=4 

Could this be the cause, and if so, what shall I do?
