Just another thought. I know that this is also pretty improbable. I don't know the filesystem of your / partition. Can this be an issue with ext4 in kernel 2.6.31 and LUKS? Have you checked your harddisk with smartctl, badblocks or something similar? Maybe it is indeed dying. Of course it's also improbable if this issue appeared only after upgrading from kernel 2.6.30 to 2.6.31 but maybe worth a try. Otherwise I don't have any other ideas. Heiko
