Hi everyone
I find out these message in my system log when my harddrive spin like crazy and temporary freeze the machine (when I logon, shutdown or reboot the machine as well).

So, I wanna run fsck and tried to fix this problem. But I do not know how to unmount the systemdrive. Cause it will not let you to do that once you have booted into system. And I tried go into live USB. But it seems like the live usb is not able to access my systemdrive. Of course, running fsck on a mounted drive is a suicide move. I hope some one can give me a hint how to solve this problem. It seems like a common bug on SATA drive. Not only F10, but some people have the same problem on other distributor like Unbuntu and Debian. I just hope the fsck trick can at lest get rid of this thing temporary.
My hard drive vendor is Fujisu. But I forgot the model of the hard drive....
Any idea?
