Hi all... I need some advice.
One of my disks give me an 0x40 error (uncorrectable error), and I think I need to replace that disk.
Does any of you know of a program to "mirror" the disk, filesystem and all? I'm running redhat 9.0 if that matters, and I installed the standard which I think is ext3 (right?)
Best thing you can do is make sure you have some disk space free (and minimise use of the dying disk). Then boot on a new disk and copy data off the old one using something like
mount /dev/hdb1 /olddisk cp -r /olddisk /newdisk/backup
Then see how much of the data you can get back
