Hi Jeff, > smart error on reboot. smart errors in windows 2000 hard drive is 3 wks > old can only assume FC2 killed my Hard Disk. > 80gig smasung SP0802N What does /usr/sbin/smartd -V render? Not sure if this is related but it could be: http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?release_id=221931 . The other results of a google for "samsung SP0802N smartd" might also help ("samsung SP0802N <snip> smartmontools-support@xxxxx; may need -F samsung[2] enabled."). > can smart be reset anyone know where some smart info is. On a standard setup you can press 'I' during startup to get an interactive startup in which you can choose which services to start. To disable smartd you should run ntsysv as root. > also it complaigns about the disc geom like the xp bug but I can still > boot windows If it boots you have no geometry issues. But your description is somewhat vague. Better copy and paste actual errors/warnings. Leonard. -- mount -t life -o ro /dev/dna /genetic/research
