Awww, damnit

It looks like redefine's (the server that hosts this blog) SCSI disk is failing. This machine has a 9Gb U160 10k RPM SCSI drive as its primary boot and root partitions, and a 160Gb IDE disk serving as /home. I was messing around from work today, trying to update my ports collection, and the machine has been acting strange. A hit from the dmesg command shows a lot of messages like this:

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Dump Card State Ends >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

sg[0] - Addr 0xb184000 : Length 4096

(da0:ahc0:0:0:0): no longer in timeout, status = 34b
ahc0: Bus Device Reset on A:0. 5 SCBs aborted

Dang. Everybody who has data on this box should officially back it up, starting now.
