Strange messages in /var/log/messages (HD failure??)

Post by David Kenne » Thu, 22 Jul 1999 04:00:00



I started getting these in myu /var/log/messages the other day.

Does anyone know what they mean?  I assume it is talking about hard
disk space?  Hopefully not, the drive is quite new.

Jul 21 08:01:00 localhost kernel: 08:08: rw=0, want=170037275,
limit=263152

Thanks.

I'd shutdown to single user mode, run fsck against  /dev/sda8.
