I am new to Fedora and admittedly a linux noob, but I keep having this issue once in awhile on a Fedora 6 machine we have in production. Every once in a while (once or twice a week) the machine locks ups and the console had a bunch of I/O errors related to sda. I thought this was a hard drive problem so I put in a second drive, and booted to an Ubuntu Live CD (I am a little more familiar with it) and used the dd command to image the drive over to the new one. But now I am having the same problem. While I was ssh in the machine crashed and I saw this on the terminal
kernel: journal commit I/O error
this looks like kernel panic to me but I am unsure of what to do about it. This is the first time I was actually on the machine while it occurred
that makes two hard drives that had the same problem.
I am running kernel
2.6.18-1.2798.fc6
It is a single Seagate drive Barracuda 160GB (one of those situations where a test machine got quickly used for production, but I am planning to move it to real server as soon as the approvals come through) running on an ASUS P5NSLI motherboard. The original drive was the exact same type.
