Something is wrong with that program. I filed a bug against it. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=498115 There is also another upstream bug against it. So I am not the only one that does not agree with it. If the hard drive dies, I use a livecd. They will not shut me down :) Then I replace the hard drive when I have a chance.
