Anyone know what causes this failure? I had shut down my linux box properly (formatted with ReiserFS) and 8.0 pro, turned my computer on today to a kernel panic - couldn't mount FS. Doh. Apparently my drive is munged ... It had been working perfectly. I am unsure if it's a hardware failure or a software one (I eventually bailed on trying to salvage the drive, rebooted into XP Pro and formatted the drive). No errors found. I have a SuperMicro P4DC6+ with duel Prestonia Xeon 2.2ghz, 1 gig of RAM. The drive was just a little 20 gig EIDE I had used to test out Suse 8.0 pro. Any advice? Thanks, Sean
