my guess as of you telling your problem appears after about half an hour is that you might have cooling problems which occur now after taking a while to show up. Possible? If yes you should definitely see to cool your discs down. I mean I had similar problems for a while and I am aware of them now.
Good luck Martin
Look at all your fans and dont forget the video card! It may have a very small fan on it. Be sure and clean all the heatsinks whether fanned or not. You can check out the heat problem by booting with something like Knoppix and playing with your system to see if it dies as it warms up. No harddrive is involved. Another repair option is to boot from cd1 or dvd, play like you're going to do an install then when the window pops up select the option 'Repair the system'. At next screen i would do the auto repair and let Yast to most of the work for you. Then like the others suggest, backup your stuff cause you are probably heading for disaster. Also consider this, you may be having a problem with reiserfs if you're hd is ok and only the reiserfs gets corrupted. I have switched to jfs because of the problems I had with reiserfs getting corrupted. jfs, as I understand, is the fs used by OS2 which is solid as a rock. Of course, I'm lazy so I look for the easy way out. And being half braindead helps. Richard -- Old age ain't for Sissies!
