Are the error messages showing the same physical block? And moving the drive does nothing, so far as the system knows. Did you use mdadm to remove the old /dev/sda, before physically removing the drive? If so, that's rather worrisome, and I'd put the drive back in its original drive bay, and see if you still get errors. mark -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
